Vónins Blue Whiting trawl goes on-board the Finnur Fridi

Trawling specialist Vónin Ltd has equipped the Finnur Fridi (see World Fishing, February), with toughened purse seining and pelagic trawling gear. Called the Blue Whiting trawl, it has a circumference of 2,048 metres, 32-metre meshes in the forenet and is made of braided Super 12 material in different colours. This gives a higher braking strength than the old material.
