Creel fishermen seek inshore trawler ban
Creel fishermen are calling for a change in the way fisheries are managed along the west coast of Scotland. They have put a case to the Scottish government for trawlers to be banned from inshore waters and say the move would create 700 new jobs and 450 new boats.
