Fishing isn't just about catching fish, it's about catching a breath

BBC Northern Ireland Review 3 months ago

Description

Jonny and Davy from Ballycastle have been fishing for giant bluefin tuna in the area for six years. Now they are attempting to establish a bluefin fishery, boasting catches of up to 1,000 pounds in weight.

The stretch between Ballycastle and Rathlin is an unforgiving one, so Davy and Jonny are tested to their limits, fishing in waters where bad weather, strong currents and deep waters can create treacherous conditions. They are on the water at every opportunity, starting at the break of dawn and fishing until the light fades over the water to the west.
