Summary: | The limited sources available for the English North East Atlantic fishery have largely been collected by Jones (2000) based on various sources including Foreign and Domestic letters and papers, Statutes of the Realm, State Papers, and ship logbooks and other archival materials. Active fishing efforts are recorded from various English ports along the east coast of England. The primary fishing grounds were around Iceland, but some fishing took place in the North Sea as well. It is likely that incidental fishing took place in the North Sea in transit from or to the Icelandic waters. The available data includes, where available, numbers of vessels deployed, numbers of fishers who were active, and tonnage of vessels. |
