SHRIMP TRAWL SETUP AS GOOD AS N EW AFTER TWO YEARS

摘要

Delivered at the beginning of 2017, Newfoundland Victor operates across areas that range from practically clean to rugged ground where gear damage is inevitable.Speaking at the end of a 26-day, 680 tonne trip, skipper Mark Hartery said that Newfoundland Victor is still fishing with the Vonin 2014 trawls that were delivered to it in January last year."We fish from just north of Newfoundland, up to Labrador and into the Arctic on the Canadian side between Baffin Island. We have to manage fishing different areas and quotas, working our way north. Because of the time of the year and the sea ice, we'll soon be working our way back south, cleaning up our quota in each region in turn," he said.
