Squid Jigging Trials - Arctic Hunter (October 1975)

In an attempt to diversify the fishing operations of the existing UK trawler fleet and to increase the efficiency of the existing Scottish squid fishery, a paper study was carried out during 1974 into the oceanic squid fisheries carried out by Japanese fleets.

Electro Trawling Trials onboard MT Boltby Queen

The report describes the present state of development of the electrified array system intended to replace ‘tickler’ chains on trawls designed for flat fish capture. The system has been developed over some 7 years and has involved trials with Beam and Otter trawls modified to carry the electrified arrays. The latest series of trials, with a modified version of a Lowestoft C4 Otter trawl, are described in the report.

Quality Audit of the Port of Whitby

This report presents the findings of a Quality Audit of the fishing port of Whitby that examined the quality of raw material supplies to the port, standards of physical infrastructure, operating practices and management controls. The quality of fish supplied to the market is generally good but let down by day-boats not using ice and by poor standards of gutting by some boats. The fish market is refrigeerated and generally maintained to a high standard but suffers from inadequate space for handling and transport ex-market that is compounded by public right of access. The standard of hygiene on the market is poor despite the introduction of a code of practice with smoking, drinking, eating and walking on fish boxes commonplace. Wash-down of the market floor is adequate but improvements could be made to cleaning of the wall, market equipment and oxes. Recommendation is made for establishing standards, procedures and controls, including documented records of monitoring and a policy for enforcement and for training.

Quality Audit of the Port of Rye

This report presents the findings of a Quality Audit of the fishing port of Rye that examined the quality of raw material supplies to the port, standards of physical infrastructure, operating practices and management controls.

Sutton Harbour Development for the Fishing Industry

Sutton Harbour is likely to be the only fish landing facility in Plymouth by 1990. The Harbour at present is partly used by the fishing industry and partly be leisure craft. The owners would like to relocate the Barbican market on the east side and offer a more comprehensive service to the fisheries of the South West. This report examines the feasibility of this.

Quality Audit of the Port of Fraserburgh

This report presents the findings of a Quality Audit of the fishing port of Fraserburgh that examined the quality of raw material supplies to the port, standards of physical infrastructures, operating practices and management controls.

Quality Audit of the Port of Brixham

This report presents the findings of a Quality Audit of the fishing port of Brixham that examined the quality of raw material supplies to the port, standards of physical infrastructure, operating practices and management controls. The quality of fish supplied to the market is generally vry good although improvements could be made with regard to gutting and temperature control by day boats. The port suffers from major problems of lack of space, poor road access and inadequate infrastructure, partly as a consequence of its physical geography. The design and layout of the market and associated facilities were found to pose serious problems of operational efficiency, quality control and food safety that are compounded by the lack of agreed standards, procedures and controls.

Mollusc Purification Plant: River Exe Shellfish Farms

River Exe Shellfish Arms (RESF) grow mussels and oysters and presently operate three mussel and two oyster purification tanks. Following a recent visit by MAFF officials, it was found that RESF were stacking boxes too high in the mussel purification tanks. This caused concern oxygen levels and potential dead spots in the purification tanks.
