12:03 am
direction of the say. they didn't call me before this year is my house. just so you know and. yes tall modest and i had my mind set on marrying a fisherman and that's what i did i seized the opportunity and became official woman and i love fishing i really do in a boy it's really exciting especially when you have a good catch with a god i mean a body like. their chances look good this morning they're out early the sea is calm and the weather forecast looks good. if you need a feels at home on her boat which bears her 2nd name moderation. the owner small coffees.
12:04 am
the couple have spent more than 50 years fishing the seas around the greek island of chaos. i sing songs for you and you don't take any notice of me i will catch your ears i will catch your ears like this listen to me. say. your 78 now if you need us 69 but there's no question of them stopping maybe they'll find a couple of really big fish today but they have been empty for days. we used to catch a lot of fish we still dream of them but catch nothing we're too old to start over
12:05 am
our pensions are lower yes i get $400.00 euros a month your gas does too that's not enough to live off. when we catch a few fish because it saves us a trip to the supermarket at least. but this time they don't even catch enough to cover the gasoline costs. are terrible a really poor catch up with what can i say that we've caught fish caught practically nothing that won't fetch anything it's hardly enough for a family lunch. their catches have steadily dwindled over the last decade some fish have become rare for example they hardly come across mackerel anymore. the
12:06 am
mediterranean. contains some $750.00 species of fish many a threatened 93 percent of fish stocks are of the fish according to an e.u. study. garfield scorpion fish little scorpion fish who's going to buy them the fishmonger might give us 3 year olds for them but no more no one obviously that's. good. today doesn't seem to be if you mean his day. the fish are too small to sell to the fishmonger and there are too few of them not enough for her daughters to verna either. they are not even very special fish. if one left or this is
12:07 am
a striped red knowledge it fetches 20 euros a cute not quite 3 this one will fetch 3 year olds of all of this kind of what a bit upset i'm not the 3 of them. are gonna get this one here is a scorpion fish the big ones fetch 15 euros but a small one like this only 3 but. still it's ideal for making fish soup. even if if you need his daughter dispy nut isn't so cane. they had some art is about that i don't like seeing the fish alive i pity them but there's one it's my father turned up with a grey mullet for me to got out of they really squeaked i told my father never do that again. now we have to add some salt because i think. it's just enough for
12:08 am
a family lunch. i must here's our fish soup was up yeah. i bet he has mother says they caught much more in the past when they fished with dynamite. yes and you put them on the do you remember when they cut your grass he had admitted to using dynamite a really great catch with big fish because he had to go to court they acquitted him because he had admitted to years he died and really get to the heart of this to get more must have been the one you feel. that. you must get but i mean we had done something illegal but we had no choice yes we were really desperate for the money we needed money for our daughter's wedding and we have
12:09 am
found a kind of a good home. and then it's time for a song about fishing. or you know nothing. at. all that yeah. that was. the. fact. that it was. how many boats how many fish of course what kind of nets a used it to your geese collects data for the greek fisheries research institute he knows there's a legal fishing and a few protected areas in great courses. in fronts italy and spain. it's the m.p.'s in protected areas that seems to work very very good for the fishermen and their vironment there's always go combined. in
12:10 am
gives we haven't succeeded in doing. that about that kind of management. people of people are afraid people skip the big thing grace they don't trust the state and the state doesn't have the willing do what's the see if for example the seri i may be a lot of years of the police maybe who don't know how to vote for 10 years now here in the board so actually how they would do it. to me he. also lives in it and you trust him. with that do you know anything about the trial or an apathy kobe and i know he's a turkish it's bigger than ours when they were fishing last night. were they working with. the boat was pulling some smaller ones i didn't see any lights but
12:11 am
they were traveling up and down all night long. i didn't understand what they were doing. looking for fish. that's bad news the couple don't have a chance against the big vessels 97 percent of greek fishing boats a small they account for half of the fish course 3 percent a big troll as they catch the other half. later. claim. holy saint nicholas. played could certainly do with some help from the patron saint according to your he is thursday's a usually unlucky days odd that the weather changes for the worse or other bad things happened.
12:12 am
last night the nets will cost a good spot. hurt a bit here and go right. up on rocks to. get a playoff. spot once more the nets appear to be almost empty. play out shit we used to catch 10 kilos of fish with this 300 meter net that was ok we didn't have any problems. but these days today disappointing. way to.
12:13 am
among c.l. has clearly been. none to us. for the dog that bit if a monk seal gets at the net that it leaves the fish in trails behind you can see that here it was a seal up in the clouds going to jump up on one thing when they take out the fish but they only take the good parts that might go out. and they leave the heads behind. only a few fish a lift and they're not worth a lot like this one for instance. it has a lot of spikes that can really hurt if the spines catch you it's really painful you know it's one i want to eat but i've taken 2 aspirin and i hope i won't feel anything if it weren't here. maybe they'll find something in the
12:14 am
next close to the rocks. ok. and if they're not yet sometimes the others leave behind a few fish here and he's not them up. there considering taking their boat somewhere else for the next few days the monk seal seems to be following them and there's nothing they can do about it the mediterranean monk seal is among the world's most endangered marine animals. out there which is. you just look. again if you media and you'll get us have court to diddle to sell. the.
12:15 am
movie. to lose. for. others in the port of misrata have obviously had better luck and found more fish in their nets at least enough to sell to the fishmonger who comes down to the harbor every morning some of the catch included more valuable kinds of fish. if. you didn't. know. when the food they used to be 30 fishermen working out of this today there are fewer than 10 if you media is the only woman among the couple getting that out of an awful now the other fishermen are afraid of me i don't know my husband is reserved if other people do something illegal or create problems for us by damaging
12:16 am
our nets for example he never says anything not me i say what's what loud and clear over the radio. shack. they tell them about the sleeping monk seal. says it disappeared when it saw. enough to get the feel of. fishmonger need cost my dad us couldn't buy much fish down at the docks in mistah today his business is also getting tough for. your fishmonger. announces his arrival at the port. of the travelers a lot of new younger fishermen have started to fish since the crisis but many of them don't have a license. most preferred official legally there are definitely quite
12:17 am
a lot of people working as fishermen in the border the. deposit with the bit bucket . no one checks whether the catch is legal or illegal for them to give. me cause me down as does his rounds in 10 to 12 villages on good days he sells about 40 kilos of fish on bad ones he might hardly sell anything before lunch. you. do if you knew your has to do without a siesta today she has to tend to her learn to ski trees she needs to prepare the ground for the gum s. tick harvest and make small cuts in the trees so the valuable resin drips out if
12:18 am
you need needs the money. back that was started we pick up the tears of resin from the ground later when they're hard and send them to market and they sell them for medicine it's good for the stomach and for other things. you know. harvesting mastic is painstaking manual labor. sorry mum i prefer fishing. i prefer to be at sea. after bush you have the desire to catch fish if you have the desire to sail into a storm to knock on your care if you know i like it when the boat bobs up and down i like spending the night on board i mean sleeping there. listening to the cry of the birds. ok it's nice here too but it's nothing like the scene i like
12:19 am

12:25 am
dino stupas is an old friend of theirs he's very worried about the future. want to better. the only way of protecting the fish stocks would be for no one to catch anything in april and may no matter what method they use but should be i'm fishing in those months. that i would have that their leaders have shot of. him again and that's what we said to. get me to go knowing where none of the many they should stop the big trawlers putting out to sea from august to october and from april to may look over the actual come up in a bit of an upper to get my list of those up early they should give the fish a chance to breed and to grow in april and may. if the troll is keep on fishing the way they do one day the waters could be completely devoid of fish. that hey larry how are you are you
12:26 am
sleeping. because they have to do something they have to stop the trawlers coming to hear the coast then we would have big fish again and enough work. because that is i make us what. has been an issue well. that's i hope people will eat fish so we earn some money and. let the downfall of another make it catch. on that's our stupid scorpion fish has done me again again. what does the future hold their children a very unlikely to return from the us should they agree to allow they wouldn't vote to be destroyed and accept compensation from the e.u. like so many others have they might get more than $50000.00 euros for it.
