Suðuroy, VSU: West of Suðuroy, VSA: West of Sandoy, KO: Off Koltur, SVA: South of Vágoy, MYK: South
of Mykines, MYL: North of Mykines - or Mýlingsgrunnur. Abbreviations forboats: A: “M/S Akranes”, E:
“M/B Ennið”, G: “M/B Gjógvarenni”, K: “M/S Kúrberg”, B: “Brimnes”, N: “Núpur” and S: “Svabo”. The

Ugging experiments usually lasted one day, but sometimes several taggings were done on the same locality.
In those cases the period of tagging (first and last date) and earliest and latest month of the year (I: January,
'2: December) were given. Experiments during the spawning season in March-April were denoted “Sp.”.
Two types of tags were used: Disc (D) and Lea tags (L). Not all tagged nor recaptured fish were length
Weasured, and average length, Standard Deviation (S.D.), mininum (Min) and maximum (Max) thus refer
to fish where length was available.
