Icelandic company Vinnslustöðin’s netter has returned to the Westmann Isands after a successful season fishing off the east of Iceland.
Kap II has been fishing for Greenland halibut off the east coast since the beginning of July, landing 660 tonnes over the season, and operating from Reyðarfjörður.
Now that the season is over, skipper Kristgeir A Ólafsson and his crew are switching over to Glófaxi, which was bouht laong with its operating company earlier this year by Vinnslustöðin. Glófaxi has now been renamed Sleipnir and will now be netting for cod, saithe and monkfish.
