full court for almost 7 years ago you've been on the floor we have $4.00 wall but i'm surprised today i saw it coming 10 years before the flood sure and. what does it take to change the course of history. raising the iron curtain starts september 30th on d w. they've been at sea for 3 hours fishing at spots that few people know but they catch a small. 5 kilos of fish at 3 euros a kilo makes 15 euros a day. how can you live from that the provider.
2:31 am
if you nia florists is up at 5 30 am she lights a candle for the patron saint and sets off with her husband your gifts in the direction of the say. i'm going to kudos for this here is my house. just so you know and say. ok 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 the board it's really exciting especially when you have a good catch with a god i mean the. their chances look good this morning they're out early
2:32 am
the sea is calm and the weather forecast looks good. if you need a feels at home on her boat which bears his 2nd name moderation. here to new small coffees. 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.
2:33 am
your heels is 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 there 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 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 part of the book. but this time they don't even catch enough to cover the gasoline costs. if i tear up a really poor catch up with you can i say that we've caught fish. nothing that
2:34 am
won't fetch and i think it's hardly enough for a family lunch going to sing. their catches have steadily dwindled over the last decade some fish have become rare for example they hardly come across macro anymore. the mediterranean contains some $750.00 species of fish many are threatened 93 percent of fish stocks are of the fish according to an a you 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 than one obviously that's. good.
2:35 am
today doesn't seem to be if your name is 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 off this is a striped red knowledge it fetches 20 euros a cute white that this one will fetch 3 year olds of all of this kind of all of that said i'm not the 3 i. doubt we're gonna get this one here is a scorpion fish the big ones fetch 15 euros but a small one like there is only 3 but. still it's ideal for making fish soup. even if if you need his daughter dispy enough isn't so cane. they had the mars about so yeah i don't like seeing the fish alive i pity them but
2:36 am
they're back once my father turned up with 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 a family lunch. must here's our fish soup was obvious. to me. if you knew as much about an ma young things says they caught much more in the past when they fished with dynamite. as significant mother do you remember when they caught your gross he had admitted to using dynamite a really great catch with big fish because he had to go to court they acquitted him
2:37 am
because he had admitted to using a document and really get to the heart of this to get more must have been that made you feel. that. you must be good but i mean we had done something illegal but we had no choice we were really desperate for the money we needed money for our daughter's wedding and i guess we have found. that on the bottom. and then it's time for a song about fishing. all the over you know of it. yeah yeah. yeah like a lot of it. but i never thought that i was. that it was. how many boats. how many fish of course what kind of nets
2:38 am
a used it to your geese collects data for the greek fisheries research institute he knows there's a legal fishing and few protected areas in creek waters. in france italy and spain. it's the m.p.'s. protected areas that seems to work very very good for the fishermen and their vironment there's always go combined. in gives we haven't succeeded in doing. that that that kind of management. people of people are afraid people are skeptical they don't trust in greece they don't ask the state and the state doesn't have the willing do what's the see if for example this area maybe now for a lot of years the police maybe who don't know have a board for 10 years now here in the port so actually how they will do it. people.
2:39 am
can take the also lives in mistah. and your trust him a good. way to get you know anything about the trawler and apathy kobe and i know there is a turkish it's bigger than ours and they were fishing last night. were they working with light. the boat was pulling some smaller ones i didn't see any lights but they were travelling up and down all night long. i didn't understand what they were doing. and looking for fish. that's bad news the couple didn'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. please. holy
2:40 am
saint nicholas. they could certainly do with some help from the painter in st according to your he has those days a usually unlucky days odd that the weather changes for the worse or other bad things happen. going to. play loose last night the next will cost a good spot. per day if you go right on top of the box. here.
2:41 am
but once more the nets appear to be almost empty. play out we used to catch 10 kilos of fish with this 300 metre net that was ok we didn't have any problems got it but these days today disappointing. the way to. a monk seal has clearly beaten them to it. would go off the bat if among seo gets at the net that it leaves the fish in trails behind you can see that here it was a seal up in the top going to set up on what they call a take out the fish but they only take the good parts out michael. and they leave the heads behind. only a few fish
2:42 am
a lift tall 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 what i want to eat but i've taken 2 aspirin then i hope i won't feel anything ever again. maybe they'll find something in the next close to the rocks. that. i get there but because sometimes the others leave behind a few fish here and it'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.
2:43 am
out there which is. exactly what i call. in again if you have caught to diddle to sell. their. community. food. for. others in the port of mistah have obviously had better luck and you found more fish in their nets at least enough to sell to the fishmonger who comes down to the hobbit every morning some of the catch included more valuable kinds of fish. feed. into the fish.
2:44 am
no. when 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 you got out of an awful now the other fishermen are afraid of me but i know my husband is reserved if other people do something and they go or create problems for us by damaging 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. your you look old enough to get the full bit 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 on.
2:45 am
your fishmonger. cost announces his arrival at the port. to 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 a lot of people working as fishermen in the border the. off the bottom of the bucket. for no one checks whether the catch is legal or illegal for them. any cost madonnas 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.
2:46 am
you mean. if you need or has to do without a siesta today she has to tend to her lead to sgt trays she needs to prepare the ground for the gun mastic harvest and make small cuts on the trees so the valuable resin drips out if you need needs the money. back to the bush 1000 we pick up the 2 years 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 mark the up with that. 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
2:47 am
if you have the desire to sail into a storm to knock on nice clear if you know i like it when the gold bobs up and down i'm 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 sea i like there are some noise fellas i leave you i just got a plea to you. but they can no longer live from pushing a law and feel we've got to go i will i also help my daughter in her tavern. i don't sit around and relax i can't do and i can't sit around it would make me ill . in.
2:48 am
business at that event a is also not what it once was. to a tourist succumbing to kiosk these days if you need his daughter dispy now will be immigrating to america's soon like her brother and sister before her. everything that. we have to go over those days not leaving anymore but then wait. for me i will come back one day i have the support of my fathers i haven't a big idea for it even though my father thinks it's not good to go to see i'd like to be a captain like you wonder what it would be my 65 i have a chance to come back. her sweet fried dumpling still go down well with the guests. and leave me alone hello. there. and help with the local markets down here with
2:49 am

2:51 am
just to get a place sometimes argue on the boat about what risks we're prepared to take out of it sometimes i want to go somewhere else and he does i want to better catch but he knows what he's doing. a hell of a frightened of the story he doesn't want anything to happen to me of or to him at the airport once he went to pull in the nets and fell into the sea. but being not come. next thanks. sailed quite a long way out despite the unsettled weather it seems to be paying off.
2:52 am
2:53 am
you. mean you are right they take a quick look at what the fish costs in kiosk town expensive of course buy to daughters lots of cases. they stop for coffee at the fish market. it was one of the other little manager of the fish market dino stupas is an old friend of this he's very worried about the future. 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 we should ban fishing in those markets to be able to use the area that i would if they lose the charter. and that's what we said to. them i think i know 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 term up in
2:54 am
a bit of an upper to give mark. 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. after that hey larry how are you guys are your slave baby. got to they have to do something and they have to stop the trawlers coming into near the coast one of then we would have big fish again and enough work. as out of work out here i mean course with all the damages has been an issue well like. here that's i hope people will eat fish so we earn some money and give. the downfall another make a catch. on the bears are stupid scorpion
2:55 am
fish has stung me again again damn. 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. no thought that all of. them but i told my husband if one day something happens to you i don't want any money for the boat that's a little ditty i don't want to single cent stamps i'll put it in the middle of the porch and set fire to it it's a little. cumbersome i'll make a huge bonfire right in the harbor. and i'll dance around it you know just like that. the
