Cornish Crawfish Investigations - MAFF leaflet published 1971.
Fascinating leaflet published in 1971 by the, 'Min of Ag and Fish' as it was then known (Defra today). Bu 1977 the crawfish fishery was all but over. What the netters didn't catch the divers - who only picked up the best - did. The last few years have seen crawfish landing in ever-increasing numbers from all round the Cornish coast - including fish originally tagged off Brittany. Currently, discussions are underway to regulate the fishery.
