Nice weather in the north, but the mackerel are still in shallow water.

Blue whiting:

679 tonnes of pollock have been fished on "the Edge" by the two boats Håflu and Cetus.

Mackerel:

There has been glorious weather in the north recently, but the mackerel are still in shallow water, which presents challenges for the seine. As earlier this summer, there are large mackerel being caught, and the sizes vary from 500 - 600 grams.
