Mean day of arrival of spawning herring (Clupea harengus) in the Gulf of St. Lawrence was calculated for different length groups by region and season. During the spawning season of both spring and autumn groups, herring arrived and deposited eggs on spawning grounds in decreasing order of age and length. Spawning bed surveys at two locations confirmed batch depositions of eggs which were correlated with the presence of dominant age-classes within the spawning population. Due to limitations of the port sampling procedure for collection of biological information routinely used in herring stock assessment, some length groups were underrepresented. This could result in the underestimation of the abundance of recruiting year-classes.
