Plenty of Newlyn boats involved in the Seafish Responsible Fishing Scheme.

The Responsible Fishing Scheme - created by Seafish - has been developed to raise standards in the catching sector and to demonstrate responsible fishing practices to you and the supply chain. Based on quality standards of vessel, crew, catch and compliance, it is one way of ensuring that what reaches you on the plate has come from the highest standards of fishing management. 

Here, we introduce the scheme and some of the skippers involved tell us about the care they put into their boats, their catch and the environment. Who better to tell us about the modern day fishing industry than the skippers themselves?
