The fishing in general is quite good, but catch of some species could be better. In the particular there is a concern about taking the quota of Greenland halibut and mackerel.
This year it's registered abnormally worm water for the last 40 years in the Norwegian Sea. In this regards he traditional catching fields of mackerel have changed. From 10th to 24th of July the specialists of the PINRO will use flying laboratory "Arcitc" in order to help the captains of fishing vessels to find this specie.
It's decided to create a working group that will solve the problem of taking the quotas of Greenland halibut and mackerel in an operative order.
