Each day during the summer my father-in-law takes one of my family out to sea along the under the cliffs to pull the crab pots. They go out at about high tide because it is not so far to drag the dinghy across the beach. The job takes about 45 minutes to haul, empty and rebait the six pots. I usually get the job of dressing the crab once it is cooked. Here you see my wife and her father rowing out.
They catch crab, lobster, and sometimes conger eels in the pots. They do other fishing locally and catch whiting, pollack, mackeral, bass, gar, and other fish including plaice and shrimp (the latter with nets). A typical week yeilds anything up to about ten crabs or lobster.
