Strict Quota control is absolutely necessary and it is also good for fishermen if they think the idea through. Instead of negative rage, try some constructive suggestions guys. I have come through the mill since the end of the war when cheap fish was urgently needed to supplement the ration books. I have sold cod at ten shillings per box and sixty years later at £150.00 for the same size box. Boom and bust is no longer an option because we have got too good at our job and are now capable of fishing some stocks below there recovery level. Please co-operate with the scientists rather than quarrel with them, they are better informed than we are.
Gerry Doyle clearly the holes in the legislation are the downfall, you limit the horsepower, it limits the size of boat and gear you can tow and in effect you can buy as much quota as you like but not chance of you ever using it
One minute your a happy fish swimming with your mates in the cool blue sea The next minute you’re flash frozen into a cube , wrapped in plastic and put into a cardboard box at least you’re still with your mates
I'm not against fishing or fishermen as I fish almost daily myself. But there has to be a point when people realise that this is a finite resource, The people in the industry can shout about their livelihoods etc, But at the end of the day...the fish in the sea will go the same way as the bison of North America, The world is slowly dying...killed off by the ignorance of old men with money.
cowboyfromkettins , they only will fish , if there is a market for it . People need to be fed , more people , more food need to be produced . Let me ask you a question , assuming you have siblings , in order to cut the need for this much food , you would be asked to go back in time , and choose one less brother or sister , which one would you pick to not exist ? Pick one and let him or her know about your call , oh , and tell the chosen one that you are sorry !!!
There is no questioning the fact that people need to be fed. But the way the fishing industry is operated has a massive detrimental effect on the environment, Over fishing, Bycatch/waste, discarded equipment and damage to the seabed from various industrial fishing techniques. I dont see what you are getting at with the whole sibling comment...This is not the same thing, targeting specific species until they are endangered to satisfy market demand is not anything like fishing for survival. My sister isnt going to drop dead If I cant get a cod supper after my night out.
Raimundo, what we see in this video is not about feeding people at this point, its about squeezing every cent out of every dollar, taking the most fish without regards, to make the maximum profit possible. I see your point, but thats not the case. we can feed people w/ out doing it like this. theres other ways of fishing that aren't as damaging, and if that means SOME people can't eat certain fish well so be it. If the fish were going to some super poor country ok, but i bet its some rich country fishing in some poor countries waters, and taking it back to their country.so your argument about moral need to feed humans isn't accounted by the capitalist fish mongers that own this boat.....they are putting hundreds of small household fishermen out of business.... why, for $$$$$$.
cowboyfromkettins , I just made the sibling analogy because a lot of the comments about this , has nothing to do with the fishing issues are about ,,,,. Too many of us ,,. the world is supper populated by humans That is the issue I have about people who seems like always tend to get that notion as the cause for all problems
..and at the end they probably put an MSC label on and every stupid consumer thinks it's sustainable fishing..meanwhile small scale fishermen and sportfishing is getting more and more overloaded with rules and limitations!!
In the bearing sea One school of pollack was measured and covered 17 square mile and contained over 3 billion fish! Most people can't fathom "get it" the vastness of the ocean.
Does not mean we should hoover up entire stock tho, it is not sustainable simples, too many people in world, a point will be reached when we can't feed ourselves.
is that the baot they renamed and sent to australia and applied for permits only to be turned back at the last hurdle and they pulled out after months of trying to get around the paperwork?
My mistake, david66croc. It was Veronica, Atlantic Dawn's sister ship, which was shifted to a Panamanian flag to make room in the Irish fleet for Atlantic Dawn.
I'd like to see some documentation on your assertions. That's a pretty neat trick when you have government observers on board. Plus governments are going to 24/7 electronic monitoring(cameras)for back-up.
funny how when the Dawn was under the Irish flag, Often cited by articles warning about over-fishing and species extinction. Never hear anything about her now, ( under her new name), strange.
This Trawler is everything that is wrong with the the way we are fishing these days. Increasingly bigger boats circling the globe, depleting increasingly smaller fisheries.
Met the crew of this misbegotten machine in Killybegs back in the day. Sadly most were working on the Dawn because there were no fishing jobs locally. They admitted ther was no point returning to aan area theyd fished for years and the bycatch included stuff they had no names for, but would sell to the Japanese and Chinese or for farmed salmon food 😢 and still happening 😢
There is no other way .. you stop your guys from fishing .build up your fisheries and other countries come in and rape it .. its like how do you stop someone else from putting debt on your credit card when they have access ..max it yourself .. protecting with navy fleets has never worked
The people criticizing this kind of fishing are the same people who eat 300 pounds of beef, 200 eggs and lots of bacon each year, without even caring where all that protein came from. The oceans were over-fished long before super trawlers arrived. What they do now is simply trying to satisfy the demand WE created, since smaller businesses can't deliver anymore. It's about money? Of course it is about money! How many Americans (largest consumer) can say NO to tuna? What will happen to American economy if all those horrible farms are shut down and meat can only come from free range farms? How many will be able to afford that? For how long?... I'm all for protecting our planet, but I wonder what the Greenpeacers eat at home and how do they power their houses.. or that's OK? It's so easy sitting at home, typing from an ipod, or mac, wearing expensive clothes...and all that produced in human farms in China, or Ecuador.. probably by children . But that's OK too.. because you don't see it. Because the news don't speak about it..."What I don't see, does not exist". Keep fooling yourselves, people. We are almost 7 billion on this planet.. We are not overfishing...we are overpopulating. And only a small fraction of that population is harvesting the goodies.
+Ventsislav Atanasov Come to live in rural Scotland ( that's in the UK ). A large majority of us eat fish that is caught by small local trawler-men on our shores, we eat meat that has been reared not 5 miles from our homes, we eat grain and potatoes that are grown within 1 mile of us, our eggs come from the chickens kept in our gardens. I completely take your point, and I'm not arguing with you in any way - more a case of take heart from the fact that there are still a large number of people who appreciate what nature has to offer, take what they need and don't plunder the riches offered to us needlessly.
+Andrew Wheeler That's the case in most of Europe. I've grown my own veggies and fruit since I was allowed by my parents. I produce my own relish, excellent home-made ketchup, pickles, I buy milk from a farm outside town and make my own feta and mozzarella. I'm not a "green" person but I do try to live a healthy life, and depend less on supermarkets. Good thing is, this is possible here (Greece). My point was that large consumers like USA and Germany or consumers who don't have the climate for one thing or another (Canada, Russia), depend on other ways of getting their stuff. I just don't get people's criticism. If they are against child labor and 20 hour shifts in Apple's factories in China, then take action - don't buy the latest iphone. Against mass-fishing? Don't buy that fish - buy from the locals (it usually doesn't come cheap, at least here it doesn't)... People will find a reason to criticize everything these days.. Strawberry picking in England? I've seen the conditions Eastern Europeans work in there. But they chose to. Everybody has bills to pay at the end of the month. (Just noticed I'm logged in under different name).
Bonjour, je suis journaliste pour France TV. Nous sommes intéressés par cette vidéo. Accepteriez-vous que nous la diffusions pour illustrer l'histoire de ce chalutier alors qu'il va être racheté par la flotte bretonne et rebaptisé? Vous en remerciant par avance, je vous confirme que vous seriez bien évidemment créditer à l'image.
You people dont know what the hell you are talking about... The fish that they are fishing is herring. And herring is a fish that is not endangered... And it might never be... Please know what you are talking sbout before you say something
I find it fascinating how people are shocked by this, how they have been blissfully ignorant of how their food gets to their tables is beyond me, i wonder have they ever seen how cows, chickens, pigs and sheep are made ready to eat, this is a shot of reality for you, and people saying that the fishermen should be punished for this is beyond me, they are the ones making an honest living providing for their families not to mention the millions of people who are dependent on these fishermen.
I'd be interested to know what kind of fish they are what their market is - are they for human consumption and if so, as whole fish or mashed up into fish fingers and fish balls and other such processed stuff.
stop making fun of the fishermen this is the what they do to get paid it is not like a another day at the office sometimes the fishermen dont come home to their love ones i am also a fisherman and i have respect for the guys and you should to
sharron swaby My father is one of the guys that "sits back in their leather arm chair" and watch profit roll in, but there is so much more into running a fishingcompany.. My father started out as a fisherman on longliners when he was 15 years old, which is 35 years ago now, back then longlining was HARD ass work, hardest work u do outseas, and it still is.. i know this because i am a fisherman myself, only 16, working on longliners.. My father worked his ass of litteraly, in order to become successful. Dont talk shit about the guys that run a fishing company, they have worked much harder than most millionares, and billionares in the world...
Wow awesome. But those doors don't look big enough to spread a net that big. Lotta hate going on here. Let me ask this... is it better to have 10 boats catching 100,000 lb of fish, or 100 boats catching 10,000lb of fish, or 1000 boats catching 1000lb of fish? Which is more sustainable? Who out there that is slinging hate actually knows what they are talking about? Size is not the issue. Actually maybe it is. Maybe it is more efficient and less damaging. BTW, this is pelagic not demersal fishing. Notice the almost complete absence of bycatch, too. Before spewing hate, get your facts straight. One fact is every one of those fish gets eaten sooner or later. It isn't wasted. It isn't even turned into fertilizer or explosives or cosmetics. Nothing is killed and just pushed out the scuppers like on small bottom trawlers. Sensitive ecosystems are not bulldozed under rollers, loop chain, tickler chain, flippers, and door shoes. This is remarkably clean fishing, about as ecofriendly as it gets. As long as stocks are not depleted. Stocks must be properly monitored. Boats overfishing should not be simply fined... captains and owners should be imprisoned and boats scrapped. Scrapped, not sold. When boats are overfishing, there are too many boats. Monitoring and enforcement, rigid and strict enforcement with unsustainable legal penalties for infraction are the key to preserving fisheries, not banning a remarkably clean operation. If every person who wanted a fish to eat, went out and caught it himself, the environmental price would be at least 10x greater. Think about that. And poor people would have little means to get their fish anyway. So how about lets stop the kneejerk rabble rousing and instead of being a bloodthirsty hyper politically correct leftist mob, do some research. REAL research, not just recycling hyped up sensationalist yellow journalism and calling it the truth.
I heard about loads of political concerns about trawlers, personally I think trawlers are not a problem, people in charge of these trawlers are the problem when it comes to overfishing, it’s these people are the ones trying to break all the fishing regulations and laws and exceed their quotas, it’s the same case of guns don’t kill people, people kill people. Overfishing is a huge problem and yes, all the fisheries should tighten the laws on trawler fishing especially when it comes to sea bottom trawling.
a lot of fisherman, actually do this because they need to make an honestliving u know sum of yous forget that, and there are Marine Compliance ships Policing our waters to make sure qoutas etc are adhered to!!
As an ex deepsea trawlerman this is an absolute disgrace, Just greed by the owners with pelagic fishing i have seen the damage done by purse seiners and these monsters the fish have no place to hide anymore god help the future generation..
A small handful of people get very wealthy(same old story) and everything else just suffers completely.... I'M TELLIN YA!...THESE BOATS JUST FK SHIT UP FOR ALL!
yeah i was a fisherman ost my life but thats fucking crazy man lol yep ive done trawling but how long can it last for these days if we keep things like this up but yep cool boat must say
Its no good for the UK because it would wipe out the fish stocks, you can see under size fish all so what you do not see all the small fish diferant ones go for fertelizer thats what they do on board the boat

Fish don't reproduce as fast as they are hauling them in tuna is becoming more and more scarce ask Japan that's why one has to be rich to eat the Mercury polluted fish.
Unfortunately this is what you need when you fish the high seas. Too bad they couldn't be modified to pickup all the garbage that's out there in all the oceans.
Maybe we heard so much about this ship when it was the Atlantic Dawn because of the way Ireland built the ship when their pelagic fleet was already oversized but still sent it out fishing under a merchant ship licence. Or maybe it could be because they cut a deal with the impoverished African nation of Mauritania to have it catch fish in their seas to the cost of local fishermens jobs and livelihoods? Also it fished under the Panamanian flag, not Irish, to avoid EU laws to protect fish stocks
You folks out there that think boats like this are raping the seas need to inform yourselves. Our government(The USA)regulates how much these guys can catch and other countries do the same. When they reach their quota, that's it, no more fishing. And just to make sure these guys follow the rules, they have government observers on board to make sure. These boats are designed to be very efficient and there's no waste, everything is used.
That's shit talk I was on the jury when this boat was arrested, they dumped hundreds of tons of horse mackeral over the legal size when they should have been keeping them, and they had their fish separator set more than they should have, they were only keeping the biggest of fish and dumping hundreds of tons, they were badly caught, so u haven't a clue what's going on, plus there is no government officials on board
@@johnmcloughlin7093 Don't have a clue where the incident occurred that you reference. But, I can tell you that every day of the 15 years I ran a mid-water trawler during the Alaska Pollack season, we had at least one observer from the NMFS. Two if we ran more than 14 hours per day. While they could not shut us down on the spot, they could make sure we never left port again.
@@johnmcloughlin7093 Well I sincerely hope that the Irish government has done a better job of monitoring the resource,. Then again, I saw what the Irish fishermen did with the Russian Navy earlier this year - not a group to take lightly. Mighty proud of them. Guess that Russian ship had a "fire" in her ammunition stores and is now in the service of Davy Jones . . .
I wonder haw many ships do this company have to put new fish stock back in to the see.?. Its only basic, if you want to take it out ,you have to put in in. If not........ the fish will run out, crab will run out, oysters will run out, and so on. TH
...... so before everyone gets their nickers in a twist, they should ask themselves what would they rather millions of people dying of hunger or millions of fish dying to sustain mankind. Im not in favour of our current overfishing of the oceans, but before you complain about what is happening you should look at yourself and see what effects your daily life has on this planet and see if you can make the change for the better to decrease our dependence on these activities.
This was a terrible video! There is no narration or even a subtitle explanation of what is going on. It doesn't appear that other than freezing, that there is any sorting or processing. Well. at least there was no muzak!
Magnificent .. If He said that he is coming back in the power of His Kingdom... Never found him lying or damaging this beautiful earth....... then.. He is coming back to destroy any human who is greedy for money ... We just can not wait for the time of Justice on the Earth Revelation 11: 18 Hebrews 13:5 Daniel 2:44 Daniel 7: 13.., 14
Strict Quota control is absolutely necessary and it is also good for fishermen if they think the idea through. Instead of negative rage, try some constructive suggestions guys. I have come through the mill since the end of the war when cheap fish was urgently needed to supplement the ration books. I have sold cod at ten shillings per box and sixty years later at £150.00 for the same size box. Boom and bust is no longer an option because we have got too good at our job and are now capable of fishing some stocks below there recovery level. Please co-operate with the scientists rather than quarrel with them, they are better informed than we are.
Gerry Doyle needs to be a limit in engine HP to limit the size of the boats
There are already limits on horsepower Robert, but' like the quotas, they have been circumnavigated.
Gerry Doyle clearly the holes in the legislation are the downfall, you limit the horsepower, it limits the size of boat and gear you can tow and in effect you can buy as much quota as you like but not chance of you ever using it
Gerry Doyle you are an indoctrinated fool
@@GreatSuccessSolutions Why must you resort to abuse. There’s no need for that.
It is a miracle that any fish is left in the ocean...The industrialization of everything is destroying our world.

It was impounded by the irish navy today for fishing over quotas in donegal
it's back fishing in Irish waters atm off the cost of Sligo

Imagine how many other times it hasn’t been caught over fishing.

As an ex deepsea trawlerman this is an absolute disgrace, Just greed by the owners with pelagic fishing i have seen the damage done by purse seiners and these monsters the fish have no place to hide anymore god help the future generation..
very calm job in the factory and on the deck. it's very good for fishermen. herring is beautiful and yummy.
Have u heard the 1 about Wong the Chinaman
A small handful of people get very wealthy(same old story) and everything else just suffers completely....
I'M TELLIN YA!...THESE BOATS JUST FK SHIT UP FOR ALL!
Very efficient machine
Amazing !
I was a Grimsby trawlerman,I worked sidewinders,seiners and pair trawlers.We didn't pillage the sea,but this is just raping the seas.
Unfortunately these boat's owners regularly manage to slip through local and international laws and fishing quotas.
But there's lockdown how they can sell now in 2020
Everyones hating when 60% of you will buy fish sticks and other cheap fish crap. If you really give a fuck go to a local honest fish monger...
yeah i was a fisherman ost my life but thats fucking crazy man lol yep ive done trawling but how long can it last for these days if we keep things like this up but yep cool boat must say
Its no good for the UK because it would wipe out the fish stocks,
you can see under size fish all so what you do not see all the small fish diferant ones go for fertelizer thats what they do on board the boat
What is the minimum size for what I believe are a species of Whiting? Better yet, how can you tell how many undersized ones there are?
these trawlers are killing the ocean!!!
Este barco es el.barco masgrande del mundo es holandes. Soolo recuerdo me quedan 1 año fue mi trabakjo trabajaba en empaque de.peescado hacia al frio con causita soldadito universal ronny sacvala rambo enrique jessus chavez
This actually looks like a pretty interesting job
That not fishin and i am a fisherman.Fished round the whole british isle an Ireland 25 yeats Nd i an still a fisherman.
i bet they all consider themselves "fisherman" too
Fish don't reproduce as fast as they are hauling them in tuna is becoming more and more scarce ask Japan that's why one has to be rich to eat the Mercury polluted fish.
thanks for the good fotage, big mid water gear ,, nz fisherman
Unfortunately this is what you need when you fish the high seas. Too bad they couldn't be modified to pickup all the garbage that's out there in all the oceans.
they could purse seighn the plastic rafts!
Maybe we heard so much about this ship when it was the Atlantic Dawn because of the way Ireland built the ship when their pelagic fleet was already oversized but still sent it out fishing under a merchant ship licence. Or maybe it could be because they cut a deal with the impoverished African nation of Mauritania to have it catch fish in their seas to the cost of local fishermens jobs and livelihoods? Also it fished under the Panamanian flag, not Irish, to avoid EU laws to protect fish stocks
It was just cheaper and to pay less to the crew
And btw they are fishing what they are allowed to take. Nothing more
Looks awesome :)
Very interesting.
😱😱😱😱😱
You folks out there that think boats like this are raping the seas need to inform yourselves. Our government(The USA)regulates how much these guys can catch and other countries do the same. When they reach their quota, that's it, no more fishing. And just to make sure these guys follow the rules, they have government observers on board to make sure.
These boats are designed to be very efficient and there's no waste, everything is used.
That's shit talk I was on the jury when this boat was arrested, they dumped hundreds of tons of horse mackeral over the legal size when they should have been keeping them, and they had their fish separator set more than they should have, they were only keeping the biggest of fish and dumping hundreds of tons, they were badly caught, so u haven't a clue what's going on, plus there is no government officials on board
@@johnmcloughlin7093 Don't have a clue where the incident occurred that you reference. But, I can tell you that every day of the 15 years I ran a mid-water trawler during the Alaska Pollack season, we had at least one observer from the NMFS. Two if we ran more than 14 hours per day. While they could not shut us down on the spot, they could make sure we never left port again.
@@denali9449 it happened off the northwest Coast of Ireland in 2012
@@johnmcloughlin7093 Well I sincerely hope that the Irish government has done a better job of monitoring the resource,. Then again, I saw what the Irish fishermen did with the Russian Navy earlier this year - not a group to take lightly. Mighty proud of them. Guess that Russian ship had a "fire" in her ammunition stores and is now in the service of Davy Jones . . .
we all eat fish but dont come to australia
I wonder haw many ships do this company have to put new fish stock back in to the see.?. Its only basic, if you want to take it out ,you have to put in in. If not........ the fish will run out, crab will run out, oysters will run out, and so on. TH
This is all to feed your cat.
There's something fishy about this boat.... o.O
I see what you did there
...... so before everyone gets their nickers in a twist, they should ask themselves what would they rather millions of people dying of hunger or millions of fish dying to sustain mankind. Im not in favour of our current overfishing of the oceans, but before you complain about what is happening you should look at yourself and see what effects your daily life has on this planet and see if you can make the change for the better to decrease our dependence on these activities.
Can i work in here???
That is a pelagic destruction of the worst type there will nothing left for the future generations pure selfishness
This was a terrible video! There is no narration or even a subtitle explanation of what is going on. It doesn't appear that other than freezing, that there is any sorting or processing. Well. at least there was no muzak!
Ignorance is bliss... its time to wake up from the greed!
Delicious. Catch dem fishies.
What a prick
All that to catch a few fish, no wonder my fish and chip portion is so small and expensive.
@shinergt750 i don't know what they have against us?
soon to be scrapped if not already as theres no fish left, greed at its best
Its not scrapped it was renamed annelies ilena, its fishing off noryh Scotland, its in port in holland now, half of the crew have covid
Too much greed will gain you nothing,!!
James Micheal its not greed. 90% of this will be exported to other countries and the pay will be miniscule
fishing is a much tougher industry than most people understand
If Hitler was a fisherman... just sayin.
this is rape of the planet earth the fish can not produce this fast
Is this Veronica? I’m proud to say I’ve been aboard her in Holland around 97, I was awestruck! What a ship
Wake up
absolutely disgusting is what this is
THIS THING SHOULD BE BANNED...
What an awful machine, enough said.
When will we humans learn. take take take
Plenty more fish in the sea.
I would love too have my own submarine so i could sink everyone of these ships😈
Sushi -,- :) !!!!!!!!!!
They will only have themselves to. Pure greed.
Use it for target practice.
Magnificent .. If He said that he is coming back in the power of His Kingdom... Never found him lying or damaging this beautiful earth....... then..
