Everyone's for preserving stocks but EU fishing laws are all a bit mental. So we can fish just outside the french waters when they're not allowed BUT, Spanish and Portuguese are free to fish in the Hebrides but UK boats are subject to quotas and can only fish for certain species. Have you ever been to Portugal, they love them little fish, they must use old ladies 60 denier tights as nets, no wonder they can't get the smell off the fish.
