Strong fishing on mackerel
HB Grandi’s pelagic vessel Faxi RE docked in Vopnafjördur yesterday with a 400 tonnes payload of mostly mackerel that were caught on the Rose Garden grounds 130 nautical miles from Vopnafjördur. According to skipper Albert Sveinsson, they have been fishing well on mackerel, but trying to limit catches so that the amounts landed are suitable for production.
