Commercial shellfish in on Narragansett Bay for :30 years.. I know exactly where he's coming from. I was mentally drained on more than one occasion, where I didn't feel I could press on. Happy to see that they got it turned around and are on the right track. Wish them all the best of luck and be safe out there.

[@patchthesinclair5896]

It's just a phase, a glitch, it has to change. Talk and paper are not worth more than food ! Blessed are the meek .

[@indiana146]

It's sad to see what's happened to Cornwall I live in darwen a small cotton town in northern England even in our town young folk can't afford houses all city types bying everything

[@AndrewHolder-h9f]

Who sold? If it meant so much why sell?

[@gokhanj.yenigun7933]

25:25 "Woman overboard!" Captain: Full speed ahead! :P

[@Downarshed]

I've fallen in love with Nicky!

[@martinhowe3679]

me too what a lovely lady

[@StriperScott]

Never seen a commercial fisherman use a sail. Very cool!

[@jondrake6113]

Stay with mum and dad chap, bread is always best buttered at home

[@sapete1936]

Finally, you turn on the comments! Don’t list on social media if you don’t want people to offer any opinions!

[@scottyfox6376]

Old way of life is just a forlorn memory these days. Tbh i'll be dead in 20yrs & im happy with that. I hope the best for the future kids but the way we are treating this world, I don't hold a lot of hope.

[@thecountryman7028]

He said it one.The village has changed over the last 40 years.EU Rules changed our fishing nothing else.The same with farming.

[@allancrow134]

God didn't make enough Nickys. :)

[@tommatin2021]

Very happy for the brother and sister wish them all the success in the world.

[@boygin4799]

I live in India work in a call centre and I would do anything to work on those boats. But I feel I won't be accepted as I am a foreigner if that ever happens. I love the brother and sister. I sincerely feel a bit of bad luck and the beginning of a start is good. It just means that better things are coming. Good luck

[@Mel-he1hg]

You’re a scammer then !

[@zerofox7347]

22:30 I can't believe a modern fishing boat would go to sea without a welder on board.

[@claytonvlogs9411]

Zero Fox I know

[@marciamaciasgarcia7550]

great series thanks very much for posting cheers jon

[@widgeonslayer]

Whole different world from here. But in a way it's the same. The old ways are dying, being killed. And being forgotten. Here it is the timber industry and agriculture. Being killed off by over regulations and subdivisions.

[@uglyfrog7263]

Nicky, I would serve on any crew you were on. You are beautiful and a credit to the ladies of the sea.

[@davidriley8590]

you have no chance lol.

[@isaaclaurenson3860]

[@jaycorey5107]

I Love Cornwall. My dad has lived in Penryn for 30 years. its such a shame the house prices have gone out of reach for most working people. lets hope prosperity and fairness comes now we have left the EU

[@radarwill]

Cornhole fishing!!

[@jeanchardonnay5627]

That Vicky is a wonderful woman....

[@albierossouw3809]

Great fishing 🎣 after some hiccups 😜

[@peterdavidson3268]

And 4 years later, how has life outside the EU worked out for the fishing community of West Cornwall?

[@colliecandle]

So sad that overprivelidged grockles are ruining what SHOULD be homes and villages for LOCAL people !

[@bokhans]

So let us vote for these rich overprivelidged Etonians and their Brexit. Sounds it worked out pretty good for the fishing communities.

[@raymondturner1478]

People don't want to live in London because it's resembles Africa and Pakistan. London's not what it used to be either. Cockneys are a thing of the past. It has a knock on impact on places like Cornwall. English people want to live in a place that resembles England !

[@hdetail]

I personally agree with some of this, I live in a city and it's so detached from so much that I value, just city things. With the type of person I am, I'm never living in the city, I'll be moving rural when I'm able to. Hopefully without the rural locals being upset with it.

[@malcolm9650]

I wouldn't live in London for FREE!

[@zachperna7519]

So true.

[@jondrake6113]

Spot on, someone with the balls to speak the truth. If only our politicians worked for us and not themselves. Sadly, if you speak the truth, you get labeled a racist bigot.

[@waynecharlesholloway866]

I’m a cockney and you are so right mate we are just the minority in London now sadly

[@greatganski8118]

Green crabs are bait in the north east USA

[@adriansolomon6805]

My son in law drives for.Fal fish He works hard and transports fish from Newlyn. His name is Wayne Ball. These men are tough .They don't get better. Best of luck to Nicky and Sis

[@barryvigus3724]

Magic !

[@fandangofandango2022]

It's a Pity Other People can not live in their Resource and Put some thing back for tomorrow like these People.

[@newvideosuploadedeveryday5082]

Keep The Videos Coming Pal Deadly

[@bokhans]

YES, keep the videos coming, now when Fishing for Brexit is victories and their victory implemented and fishing waters are back there must be lots of great fishing stories to tell.

[@Blinkydabill]

I know all these fisherman, John and Jay pascoe, nikki, had many a pint with the Henry's at castaways in Mylor, I miss it, cos we all worked hard.

[@pigeonpecker7623]

anyone else want Nicky to suit on your face? :P

[@indiana146]

How are nicky and her brother doing

[@indiana146]

It isn't just coastal towns were locals can't get a house I live in darwen Lancashire Used to b cheap houses we bought our first house for £8000 now with motorway good rail Links houses £160,000 £250000 average young local folk can't buy houses But if I were you id b pissed with city folk and holiday homes You have a beautiful country spoiled by the rich

[@pigeonpecker7623]

nah you just have ti work hard lol

[@cumbrianhomestead]

It's been like that in the lakes for 50 years or more. I worked for a guy cutting lawns (temporarily) at lots of the big houses - 90% were empty, bar 2-3 weeks of the year. Most of the locals priced out.

[@garyteeley8351]

I do like Miss. Nicki...😍😍

[@25is27]

The trouble with the housing is local people selling out to the wealthy. Sell at a lower price to locals only. Wealthy incomers can only buy if you sell to them, unfortunately money is more important to the cornish.

[@daviddenham1511]

Not to mention the huge fee from appearing on the show…….that should help

[@aib0160]

I sign of the massive unwanted changes we see in the UK today. British people with money flooding into Falmouth looking for an escape from the foreign people with no money flooding the places where they live.

[@indiana146]

We bought our old cottage over 30 yrs ago it's an old weavers cottage in darwen It cost £38,000 now £180,000

[@pigeonpecker7623]

cool story

[@roberthardie5378]

Deliberately done to shut the fishing industry down .. follow the money

[@malcolmfunnell4501]

Cornish homes for Cornish people

[@colliecandle]

Definitely !

[@zosoart]

Looks like daphne du mariers house

[@bradthackston2323]

It sucks that the rich can ruin lives so they can have a place to go for a few weeks and be rude to the few locals that live there after ruining there lives

[@mclare9817]

No great Surprise... History repeats. Read Leo Walmesley.😐

[@garyteeley8351]

Happy to see Peter alive but still works alone and does not even employ one person? So short of vision to not see how a helping hand will increase the efficiency of the catch and increase safety, dont understand his mindset

[@winnietheshrew2957]

Pulling a dredge across the seabed. Great idea - not!

[@RoebuckGoose]

do cause some damage but rockhoppers cause a lot less damager, its your scallop dredgers that ruin the seabed

[@williamanderson6142]

Nicki must be the hottest fisherperson on the 7 seas?

[@okdokey5197]

i love cake

[@karem777]

Anyone here for IB Business 2020 Paper 1?

[@ManMountainMetals]

nope. don't look like it.

[@andyaim4764]

So voting to leave to save the British fishing industry….. How did that work out?? With Nigel Farage being on the EU fisheries commission while an MEP, he and others liked to put the fishing industry front and centre in the Brexit debate in 2016. Despite having attended just one out the 42 commission meetings, and therefore done very little to actually support the UK Fishing industry pre-Brexit, he claimed that being in the EU had ‘gutted’ the UK fishing industry and Brexit would solve all their woes. Nigel Farage launched a poster campaign in Grimsby in 2015 and, notwithstanding the fishing industry accounting for a mere 0.03 per cent of the British economy (around half the size of the UK biscuit industry!), it became totemic in the Leave campaign. Half of England’s fishing quotas had been sold to foreign interests, and two thirds were in the hands of just 25 extremely wealthy owners. Even so, the idea was pushed that Brexit would benefit the small fishing villages, with their families of cheery, bearded Captain Bird’s Eye characters. And despite Britain being a net importer of fish (importing nearly twice as much as we exported), British waters not containing the sort of fish British people like to eat, and nearly 40 per cent of all British fishing happening in foreign waters, Brexiters clamoured for us to ‘take back control’ of British waters for British fisherman. So how has Brexit affected the British fishing industry? A report published by the University of York in 2022 found that despite promises of radical reforms to help the industry ‘take back control’ of British waters and increased quota shares, the reality was far from that. The Brexit deal that was signed gave EU vessels continued access to British waters, and increased new regulations and logistical hurdles, making exporting slower and more expensive. Fish is a product where freshness is key and many UK fisherman lost customers as a result. The report found that small boat fishermen have seen few, if any benefits. Instead, there have been increased costs and challenges. Lead author of the York study, Dr Stewart, said: “Many people in coastal communities who were pinning their hopes on post-Brexit reforms feel betrayed and this comes at a significant cost to their wellbeing and mental health.” I’m sad to say the right wing politicians used the same tactic of demonising a minority to stir up anger built on lies and exaggerations to get your vote! Exactly what trump pulled off recently. It’s not a new trick, post Nixon in America the republicans pulled the same trick to try and win back some credibility after tricky dicky got caught out. Brexit has been an utter disaster and has cost the country billions while the likes of farage swans around pulling exactly the same trick of demonising migrants and minorities. When will some ppl realise the con??

[@amjoshuaf]

So it was bad luck to have a woman on the boat.

[@AndrewHolder-h9f]

Why are they second homes? Because the fisherman sold them and probably not for anything near what there worth now! They can’t be taken they where sold for a penny and now there moaning! DONT SELL IF YOU DO DONT MOAN ABOUT IT! I don’t agree with what’s happened but who can you blame? Anything for a shilling that’s the saddest thing of all!

[@timfagan816]

Such a dumb comment.

[@roberthardie5378]

Govt legislation has killed the fishermen.. 15 % for workers 85% for govt and their beuracats .. show me their risks and labour ? Suits need their noses out of the trough and earn an honest living like us fishermen
