Could that have something to do with the small independent fishermen selling their portion of the catch quota to the rich? You know, like in the article Kevin linked earlier. Of course they aren't going to be able to go and catch fish, if they have sold their share of the quota.

I can`t say if they sold or not. I live on the South Coast and see them fishing daily, if the sold their quota, would they still be able to fish I don`t know, don`t know the rules.

Something else mentioned in that article is the leasing out of catch quotas. If your fishermen have sold their quotas, then had to lease them back from the people they sold them to, that would also explain why they aren't making as much as they should be.

Just because something is their own fault, doesn't mean they no longer complain about it. They shouldn't complain about it, if this is the case, but they will. It's what people do. I'll be honest, and say I don't know if this is the full story.

The article said the small boats only account for 2% of UK quota in total.
