    Steaming out of Lochbroom last Tuesday morning after landing in Ullapool.
    Saw her and 17 other E coast twin riggers in the Minch a coupla weeks ago - fishing a bit slow in the N Sea??!!
    usually a bit slack at this time in the north sea.
    but if the fleet keeps fishing in the minch,as its doing the west coast
    effort will have reached a 100% of the kw. days and the fishing could be stopped in september.
    the islanders are not very happy about it. cant blame them.
    whats happening in the minch will not affect me,
    same as the large contingent of irish boats working in the clyde just now.
    but if i was trying to pay off a £250,000.boat and the actions of a fleet of
    visiting boats could mean i was going to be tied up for 4 months .
    i would not be happy either.
    and neither would you..
    just the governments way of keeping the job divided,and its working.
    Hi ky16. I dream of the day i can work 9 to 5.
