BBC Radio Wales - Country Focus, Fish Tales

Catch of the day in Cardigan Bay and the Lleyn Lockdown lobsters.

Why there's plenty more fish in Cardigan Bay and selling Welsh lobsters from the Lleyn to London.

After a heated debate in the Senedd, farmers warn that Welsh Government plans to tackle pollution could put small farms out of business.  
The impact of Covid 19 has been challenging for the Welsh fishing industry, added to that, the post-Brexit difficulties of selling to the EU has meant a rethink for fishermen to find new markets for their catch.  
We have two climate change stories -  Wales' bid to be the 'first deforestation free nation' and we hear a warning that some private hydropower schemes in Wales could be under threat.  Finally we go in search of a rare millipede on old colliery sites.
