FAQ's
Commercial fishing is a business venture in which fish are caught and sold for profit. Recreational fishing, on the other hand, is a leisure activity in which people catch fish for pleasure. According to UK government guidelines, it is illegal to sell fish caught for recreational purposes.
Commercial fishing vessels fishing in the UK sea must have a domestic fishing vessel license in order to sell their fish. There are some exceptions to this, however, and you should consult government guidelines to decide whether your vessel requires a license.
Commercial fishing vessels
Commercial fishing boats are built to handle rough conditions, including high amounts of pressure from waves and wind.
Commercial fishing vessels are categorised by the onboard equipment used to catch fish. For instance, to categorise commercial fishing vessels by type of net, you would find: trawlers use large nets that are dragged along the ocean floor; purse seiners have a large circular net that is draped around a school of fish; drifters use a smaller net that hangs in the water column.
There are many different types of commercial fishing vessels, which have each uniquely adapted to the fish they catch and the environment they operate in.
Artisanal fishing vessels
In contrast to commercial fishing boats, artisanal fishing boats are typically smaller and used for shorter trips. These boats often use simpler equipment in comparison to the commercial vessels, reflecting the lower volume of fish catch.
Recreational Fishing Vessels
Recreational fishing vessels are typically much smaller than commercial or artisanal fishing boats. They may be powered by a motor or sail, and are designed for shorter, pleasure trips.
