A reporter interviews a fisherman, Mr Robin on the decline in the local fishing industry in Mevagissey in Cornwall. Martin Chesterfield operates a traditional Cornish lugger, a type of small sailing boat now converted to running on diesel so-named because of its lugsail although the word ‘lug' may also have come from an old Dutch dialect meaning to trawl. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries Cornwall had a thriving fisheries industry.
