Through the Gaps exists to promote fish at source and demystify the fishing industry in an increasingly complex market place. The author's intention is to provoke readers to think or think differently about how fish are caught, handled and presented for consumption and to inspire blog viewers and port visitors to become more fish aware and informed about this hugely important community. To be inspired by fish and fishing, not just as food but by the men and their boats and the lives of those who work in and around to serve the port, the lifeboat, the Mission, the places to eat, drink and shop, the art galleries - all of these contribute to the life and soul of Newlyn. Celebrate quality of life not lifestyle. Whether you catch or cook, the future of fishing is in the hands of all those involved being made more aware to meet ever increasing demands from political, environmental, economic and social change - the more informed people are, the stronger the debate.
Please take a few minutes to nominate 'Through the Gaps' in the Food Champion category of this years BBC Radio 4 Food Awards.
If only everything in fishing was black and white!
