Sheila Dillon goes fishing with a diver who hand-picks scallops off the Devon coast.

She meets a representative of the scallop dredgers and explores the management structure relating to the area. And, as the Government consultation process nears its end, she hears views on what the Government should be considering for the Marine Bill and the future for Britain’s fisheries.

Sheila talks to fisherman David Sales, of the Southern Sea Fisheries Committee, and joins Darren Brown, a licensed scalloper who dives for scallops on the sea bed off Start Bay in Devon.

Sheila hears the point of view of the scallop dredgers by talking to Jim Portus, Chairman of the South-west Fish Producers Organisation and Secretary of the Inshore Scallopers Association.

Sheila visits Chris Venmore, crab fisherman and chairman of the Devon Sea Fisheries Committee. Show less
