The Guardian dispatched a reporter down to Newlyn recently and sought out a couple of fishing families in the port. As it happens, the Discovery Channel will be screening Trawler Wars later this month so an obvious choice were a couple of father and son teams aboard the beam trawlers to be featured in the documentary.
As such, all those who know Newlyn well will be well acquainted with the unmistakable not- so dulcit tones of Don Liddicoat, currently skippering the Filadelfia for his sins. The Guardian's article touches on some of the more human aspects of making a living from catching fish.
