With the Cornish Sardine fishery in full swing the local fleet of rin netters are enjoying the occasional good shot of fish. At this time of year, the boats head out through the gaps around 9pm in the evening to search for the shoals of sardines. The tide, weather and activity of other predatory species like dolphins can make finding the fish marks to shoot their nets on a challenging task. In this short video, the latest boat to join the fleet, the White Heather has had a successful night's fishing and is landing an exceptional haul of around 20 tons. The fish are kept in top condition with the addition of slush ice, a mixture of sea water and ice.
