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.

In the company’s product development process, computer simulation and flume tank tests are performed to achieve the desired characteristics. In this process, strong collaboration with the users of the fishing gear is important. This way, Ísfell promotes innovation and continuous improvement.
