Season 1
Episodes
Episode 1
Whilst other fishing communities are feeling the pinch, Mevagissey on Cornwall's south coast bucks the trend. Can the next generation of young skippers make a go of it?
Episode 2
It is summer, the sardine run is on and the ring-netters of Newlyn are on the hunt. Rebranded as Cornish Sardines, the pilchard fishery has grown into a multi-million-pound industry.
Episode 3
As change comes to a quiet corner of Cornwall, brother and sister Jason and Nicky are risking it all and changing from sail boat to trawler.
Episode 4
A look at the smaller boats that fish off Cornwall's coast, often with only a single crew member. Despite being a sustainable method of fishing, this traditional approach is coming under threat from industrialisation, a lack of new talent taking up the trade, and declining stocks of mackerel and other once common fish. In Penberth, James is the only fisherman under 65 - and since traditional methods rely on boats supporting each other, he may have to give up when the older generation retires. On the Helford River, a veteran fisherman shares his concerns for the fish processing industry if Britain leaving the EU leads to a decline in foreign labour.
Episode 5
As autumn comes to Cornwall, the biggest boats fish through turbulent times offshore. But with Brexit looming, what does the future hold for these big old boats and their crews?
