What do you think of this photo?

Saphire · « **Reply #2 on:** December 16, 2009, 23:33:35 »

Am I mistaken, or is that a Longliner in the photo?

JoaoMarques · « **Reply #3 on:** December 16, 2009, 23:39:52 »

Yes is

There shure do seem to be alot of them around nowadays, they sort of took over after all the British boats stoped and went towards Trawling, I have a feeling they all fish around Iceland and the Faroes.

Faroe Islands are boss!

I'm not one who knows much about fishing, but I do know it's a complicated process from the looks of it.

I'd just like to say thank you to all of those out there who risk their lives to give me dinner.

I am not familiar with that kind of fishing but i recognize the buoys. You mostly see them off the coast. Never knew it was attatched to a net. I always thought there would be some kind of pod attatched to it, like they do on the Deadliest Catch.

My grandfather and his brother had their own fishing vessel. I got a picture of her, taken somewhere in the 60s.

I could most likely tell you what type of fishing it is but youtube doesn't seem to be working for me at the minute.

Ballast · « **Reply #12 on:** December 17, 2009, 16:46:50 »

it looks like they drop a net over the side with a buoy attatched to it. After some soak time they pull the net back on board.

Saphire · « **Reply #13 on:** December 17, 2009, 16:53:43 »

Oh that is most likely Gill Netting where miles of net are spread out along a place where fish are know to be then it is hualed after about 5-6 hours.

Edit: this is more or less it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gillnet

This type of fishing is used only to catch octopus, is used to leach out of the octopus called "pot", is how we fishermen call them here in Povoa de Varzim, Portugal.

One of Mad_Fred's vessels, that are spoofs of the North Western and the Time Bandit(Or another cabin aft fishing boat)

Saphire · « **Reply #18 on:** December 21, 2009, 23:01:16 »

Somehow I don't think we'l see many fishing boats in SSE but it would be nice to see Mad_Freds boats included.

Minime · « **Reply #19 on:** December 22, 2009, 00:25:36 »

I'd like to see a big trawler, maybe one of the faroese ones.

Firestar · « **Reply #20 on:** December 22, 2009, 03:06:51 »

That'd be nice, I would've attempted one, but I'm nowhere near ready for that.

I'd like to see a Deadliest Catch vessel! That'd be like, awesome.

Agree about the big trawlers. I'd like to see especially one of our ones.

Our local heritage trawler, she has a few UK records:

I see her pretty much every odd day here, passing the Trawler Docks.

Saphire · « **Reply #23 on:** December 22, 2009, 15:13:29 »

Am I right in thinking that is one of the first deep water stern trawlers? Looks like it is from the 1950's to me.

IRI5HJ4CK · « **Reply #24 on:** December 22, 2009, 15:17:34 »

She was operated by Marr's from Fleetwood for years,
Jacinta was built in 1972.

You can see a profile on her here:
