Migrates for spawning to the lower reaches of the Don in April. At the end of April, it enters the delta of the Kuban and spawns there in June. In winter, it is found along the Caucasian coast as far south as Batumi. It migrates from the Sea of Azov earlier than the other herrings in autumn and returns there in mid-April. Eggs are bathypelagic or sink to bottom
