Great camera work. You have to salute the fishermen who face this to earn a living.

Fascinating, but so scarey to watch. Makes you wonder how they got on years ago.

Something to ponder on whilst you are tucking into your fish supper and wandering why fish is more expensive pound for pound than steak !!!

Phew ... breathtaking video, best I've seen since Deadliest Catch, which was easily one of the greatest factual TV series ever made.
