- FishTown, Series 2, EPISODE 2
Take half an hour for an insight into the fishing industry in the NE of Scotland in Episode 2 of the BBC fishing documentary FishTown!
Catch it on BBC Scotland - 1930 - Mondays
This Episode shows that there is a nucleus of young, keen fishermen who can be the base from which Britain's industry can be rebuilt after being ravaged by the EUs Common Fisheries Policy (CFP).
This is the industry, way of life and heritage we are campaigning for.
To take back control of all out water and resources and rejuvenate our fishing to be a sustainable, multi-billion pound industry - a world leader equal to Norway.
Our government MUST NOT trade away fishing a 2nd time by surrendering our greatest natural resource to hollow EU threats on trade in goods and financial services for continued exploitationary access to British waters.
The UK contributes 50% of the waters and 60% of the catches to the common EU pot but only receives 25% of the quotas.
British seafood is some of the finest and most in demand in the world - EU markets have high dependency on our seafood and will continue to post-Brexit.
The government must take back FULL control of ALL our waters and resources and use this freedom to implement bespoke British policy to husband our great resource as a national asset that can inject huge prosperity to rural coastal communities for generations to come.
Any future deals on fishing must be on a STRICTLY annual basis and ONLY when the UK receives a reciprocal value of fishing opportunities in return.
If the above happens we will be a normal, independent coastal state - the equal of Norway, Iceland and Faroe, with a multi-billion pound industry exporting high quality sustainable seafood globally.
Government must have the guts to stand firm that they won't sell out fishing for a trade deal. Something Boris Johnson said would be a "reprehensible" thing to do.
With British policy that - ends the cause of discards; tackles EU owned but UK registered Flagships; repatriates our resources; and ends shore based quota renting "Slipper Skippers", then we will see a rejuvenation to Peterhead, Fraserburgh, Macduff, Banff, Buckie (and all the communities in between) to the boom towns they once were.

There's not too many 17yo's like Gavin around these days, well done young man, you're a credit to your parents and yourself :) Love this show.
good on that young lad A young man that has his head on right
Your going places Gavin..Well done!
Well deserved. 👍👍👍
You half an good crew John
John D keeps the boat in better fettle than his dad !!! Still, she's up for sale now @half a million. Good luck to you John 👍
James, Stephen, Robert and Andrew west are distant cousins of mine. 😁
I am 34 and I would do anything to be that 17 year old kid. Never pursued dreams and now I sit here in me basement still dreaming of the oceans
I started a Merchant Navy Officer cadetship at 45 mate, go for it!
What happened to the fruitful bough and James old crew 🤔
Gavin reminds me abit about myself on wen I started fishing 2 to 3 days a week doing razers with my step da I was 17 I think wen I started to the odd day here and there and now I'm full time at it
Love working on the water
It's like freedom especially wen it's a nice sunny day
There isn't many lads out there that are 17 years old and are buzzing to get work on the big trawlers
Fair play to Gavin he has his sea legs that's for sure 🔥⛴️💯
Why are there no foreign crew at that dinner? We seen them on the boat. If they were invited but couldnt go then thats fair enough. You all work together as a crew/family so should all be sat at the same table.
It's an award ceremony for skippers and trainee skippers.
What? I don’t understand half of what these dudes are saying.
