In spite of poor weather that has stopped us fishing for days at a time, catches were excellent,\u201d said skipper Kristinn Gestsson.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere was poor weather the whole time we were there and it was bad enough for us to have to dodge for a few days. But catches were good on the days when we could fish. The main problem was the large amounts of haddock on the fishing grounds, and we are not allowed to go over the 30% bycatch limit for the trip,\u201d he said. He also said that the bad weather on the Fugl\u00f8 Bank prompted them to steam south of Lofoten.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had our last 10 days of fishing there south of Lofoten and we had some fine weather and very good fishing.
