Souviens Toi CH 518388

French stern trawler Souviens Toi CH 518388 hauling gear after towing west of Guernsey. As the cod end of the net reaches the surface high numbers of Lesser Black-backed Gulls and Gannets dive for smaller fish escaping through the net mesh. These birds have become well adapted to fishing vessel operations and acquire a significant proportion of their food through fishing activity. It can be argued that some seabird populations rely on this food source to sustain their colonies and will be adversly affected when discard bans are introduced.
