Fisheries yields for such subarctic fish species (i.e., northern pike, lake whitefish, and walleye in eastern North America, and northern pike, European whitefish – Coregonus lavaretus, and percids in northern Europe) have been linked with species-specific (and perhaps region-specific) habitat optima [6].
