Capelin Fishing

• 7.1-9.8 inch

• 0.22-0.55 lb

Capelin are small, schooling fish found in the cold waters of the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans. Vital in the marine food chain, they are a primary food source for larger fish, seabirds, and marine mammals. Anglers often use Capelin as bait to catch bigger predators like cod, halibut, and salmon during their nearshore spawning runs.
