The Continued Development of a Larval Rearing Technique for Turbot

Eggs of turbot, Scophthalmus maximus, were transported from the White Fish Authority’s Marine Farming Unit, Hunterston and the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries & Food Unit, Lowestoft at the eyed ova stage and hatched in tanks at the Authority’s Marine Farming Unit, Ardtoe. The tanks, with constant illumination and temperature control, were stocked with rotifers, Brachionus plicatilis and algae (mainly Phaeodactylum sp) before the eggs were installed. The larvae were fed successively on rotifers, various stages of the brine shrimp, Artomia salina, and mysid shrimps, Leptomysis gracilis. A total of 1,764 metamorphosed fish were produced, the survival of the best batch of eggs being 1.1%.

North West Regional Study

This report provides an overview of the fishing industry from the Scottish border in the Solway firth to the Dee Estuary and the border with Wales. The fleet comprises trawlers of up to 18m. and inshore vessels down to 6m. but other harvesting methods include tractor drawn shrimp trawls and the collection of molluscs by hand. The trawl fishery is suffering from the international overfishing of the North Irish Sea. Inshore fishermen and others attempt to meet EC inspired fish hygiene directives. Fleetwood is in serious decline as a fishing port but local fish merchants still handle considerable quantities of fish, most of which is trucked in.
