  • Take 20minutes for an insight into the fishing industry in the NE of Scotland in Episode 1 of NEW fishing documentary Fishtown!
    Catch it on BBC1 Scotland - 1930 - Mondays
    Showing stocks are hugely abundant with good catches from healthy stocks by those boats that have survivied.
    But there are huge regulatory issues that need addressed by the freedom Brexit provides. By tackling them we can hopefully see an expanding family owned fleet replacing the 60% scrapped by the EU.
    A fleet taking advantage of regaining 3/4 of British resources EU fishermen take directly or through EU owned UK registered 'Flagships'.
    With discard free policy and accurate science we can move to management that allows young men a career with progression from deck to wheel house.
    VITAL to attract a next generation of young Britons to replace one lost. A loss that's led to a severe recruitment shortages replaced with foreign labour from around the world.
    The Fleet in NE Scotland is particularly suffering from the ability of shore based 'slipper skippers' who are allowed to rent entitlement to fish to hard working skippers at sea.
    They are bleeding on avg 60% of the profit from the industry, stiffling recruitment and reinvestment for many.
    Govt must have the guts to tackle this to see a rejuvanation to the boom towns they once were in Peterhead, Fraserburgh, Macduff, Banff, Buckie and all the communities in between.

    From trouble and headache, to joy and contentment on every wave. These fisherman are to be respected for their way of life.

    These lads are un sung heroes. Every day is high risk. From being swept out, to being hit with a broken cable. They have to endeavour being hit by huge waves. While still doing there job. They travel days on end. The livelihoods depend on luck. They have been known to come home with nothing. And when they do hit a huge payload. They are penalised. By sticking to a strict quoter. Slamed on by rolls Royce driving pen pushers. They need to get on board, a fishing boat. To see what the job intails. And how dangerous and hard it is. All this while European fishermen have twice the quoter in our waters. Where is the justice. Our water our fish. Lining the pockets of foreign lands. This is the unbalanced deal our government agreed to, back in the day. So let's prey for our fishing lads. The brexit brings on better times for all.

      i grew up in Eden, New South Wales. When i was a kid it was a massive fishing port with at least 40 trawlers and fishing boats of different kinds. they also used to land a lot of tuna there from deep water fishing boats home ported in far away places like japan. There was also a greenseas tuna cannery that closed down in the late 90s.
      sadly now there's only a handful of fishing boats remaining and the tourism industry is about all that's keeping the town afloat
