Fishing for shrimps in the North Sea
|
|
During
this fishing trip that will take about three hours we
go fishing in the North Sea, off the Belgian coast.
We depart from the port of Ostend, where coastal fishermen
provide a daily supply of fresh shrimps, which can be
bought at the famous Ostend Vistrap (fish market). |
|
|
|
You can find our ship, the Crangon, on the eastern bank of
the Ostend port channel. We are moored near the Lange Nelle
lighthouse, where you can easily embark and debark.
|
 |
Our
shrimp fishing vessel is equipped in the traditional manner
so as to allow you to experience how Flemish fishermen
used to practise otter board fishing with side trawlers.
The shrimps are sorted, washed, boiled and then cooled
down as quickly as possible by your hands. |
|
|
Afterwards
… you can take a "taste" of the catch home with
you for free! |
