Working the Irish way.
The green arrow marks the spot - well the approximate area the the Newlyn gill netter Ajax currently finds herself working. After several trips working west side of the Scillies the fish (hake) appear to have moved Northwards to the Kinsale rigs area as reported by skipper Alan on Tuesday. At times the netting fleet have to spend several days searching for fish if they have moved from an expected fishing ground.
