Fraserburgh netmaker Faithlie Trawl has made a variety of hopper-type prawn and whitefish nets designed by managing director Willie Hepburn for a growing number of skippers in north-east Scotland and Shetland.

As a result of achieving consistent results with Faithlie twin-rig trawls on board the 24m Copious BF 237 (now renamed Ocean Way LK 207) when he bought the trawler from Buckie last year, skipper Leslie Hughson and his son Kevin of Out Skerries in Shetland placed an order for two similar nets with Faithlie Trawl.
