Extract

The conception of the sea as an unlimited reservoir of fish is now outdated. The post-war history of the fishery resources of the north Atlantic has shown that stocks can be depleted to a level where the catching rates are no longer an economical proposition, and the general pattern of expansion has been to move farther afield to grounds where the catches are sufficiently improved to offset the greater steaming time, and hence running costs, involved.
