here in Iceland, the vessels that catch herring, mackerel and capelin are large and so large that they are able to take well over 2000 tonnes and up to 3000 tonnes in one trip

in Norway,  there  are also such a big ship, but there are also many boats that are much smaller but still these giant ships. and many of these smaller boats fish herring herring and mackerel,

Today, 3 January, the first herring has been landed in Norway, and attention is drawn to the fact that the boat that landed herring is currently not large,
