LaHave Bank

LaHave Bank is one of the submerged fishing grounds of the Scotian Shelf, off the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia. Its waters shelter haddock, halibut and wolffish as well as cod and flatfish. Cod of the southern shelf spend the winter in deeper water around LaHave and Browns Banks, moving between the shallows and the basins that break up the shelf. Beyond the banks, the sea floor descends towards the deep Atlantic.
