Pelagic trawls

Ísfell produces pelagic trawls for capelin, herring, mackerel and blue whiting. Only high-quality materials from well-known manufacturers are used in the production.

The trawls are designed by our staff, who have decades of experience in setting up and handling fishing gear. The trawls are designed with the aim of maximizing fishing capacity, being light to tow, sturdy, easy to use and durable. The pelagic trawls are tailor-made for each ship according to engine size and towing power.

The company’s product development process uses computer simulation and flow tank testing to achieve the desired results of the fishing gear. In this process, strong collaboration with users of the fishing gear is an extremely important factor in innovation and contributes to continuous improvement at Ísfell.
