250 box haul, beach seine
only problem is that much stuff the market usually end's on its bum but a braw sight all the same lot's of bodies to get a divide tho ! more for coke and mars bars than fuel !!!
plenty of anger over it : http://www.flyforums...r-isle-man.html
Some very interesting photos and comments(in all fairness to the angling brigade,some of which I have to agree with)on that link Cam.Unfortunately,that's just manna from heaven for the angling/greenie/save fish stocks/ban trawling/ban clam dredging/ban all commercial fishing etc. etc team,and make no mistake,once the "propaganda R us" guys and gals get their teeth into it they milk it for all it's worth.Bad Mr.Commercial Fisherman gets hung out to dry again,it's always him who's causing the problem,never the angler filling up his freezer at home with fish that others need a quota for,or flogging bass on the QT to the local hotels..no change there then
fair point about preserving fish stocks but there is loads of mullet all over the place the stuff we caught is only a handfull and we were just trying to make a bit of cash. i just thought they guys on the link were blowing it out of preportion.
I've given up trying to argue with some anglers. no matter what angle you try demonstrate the problems with, all commercial fisherman are 'rapists of the sea'
that is a quote from one guy who will go out as many times a week as he can in his boat hammering the cod on the wrecks. one session this year he landed over 250 cod, mostly 5 to 10lb in an afternoon. stuck photos on a web site of a deck full of dead an mostly gutted fish and then tries the I returned them all except a couple for my tea. He is alos well known for flogging them on the QT round the doors etc.
your banging your head against the wall trying to argue with them. Most have little or no understanding even of the various methods. they see 2 boats near each other close to the shore and automatically they are shouting about illegal pair trawling.

are they any good to eat (mullet, not anglers)?
I saw a few of them swimmin about the pontoons in Lossie in the summer, but someone said they were poor eatin

need bigger boat ?
they are not bad eating if they are from the sea, not the ones from marinas and harbours, we just descaled them, shoved some herbs, lemon and butter inside it after gutting it and fired it inside a tin foil parcel in the oven, nice meat bit boney but well worth a try.
If its good enough for Rick Stein to serve at his restaurant no harm in anyone else trying it

An MHK (manx MP) said we used a "factory ship"! wounder if it was our Mullet that Rick Stien served
