Fisherman of the Year title given to a woman for first time

The first woman to land a Fisherman of the Year accolade said she was determined to "normalise" the role of women in the industry.

Despite breaking this particular glass ceiling, Ms Mullenger said she wanted to be known as a "fisherman"."Men have done this job for years, historically built the industry, I'm not about to come in and take that title away from them," she said.The under 10-metre award, which refers to the size of fishing vessel, looked for "an individual who has demonstrated skill, determination, leadership ability and adaptability to change.

"That feeling of acceptance, I'm speaking out about British seafood and the small-scale fleet here in this country. "The industry is complicated, it's really complex. I try to educate myself as much as I can so I can sit at the table and be involved in discussions that may ultimately affect our future."

God they are even doing that

the whiting is on the wall

Let the fishy jokes start now 🤣🤣🤣

The prize yes but not the title

This can’t be true? We have no fish left to fish after giving them all away to the French😂!

About time!

👍🏻

If she was the best...no strange!

Is she a mermaid?

Something is fishy here.

Outrageous
