Tour Scotland short 4K Winter late afternoon travel video clip of the sight and sounds of a creel boat leaving the harbour on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit to Anstruther, coast of, East Neuk of Fife, Britain, United Kingdom. Creel fishing takes place around the Scottish coast. Creeling, and the many shore based services that rely on it, are often the main source of employment in small coastal towns and villages. The boats that make up the inshore creel fishery are small, usually under 30 feet long- which means that engine size and weather dictate how far from shore, and how often they can fish. One or two people normally crew a creel boat, one of whom is usually the owner. This is the area in which I was raised in Scotland. Herring fishing was a feature of the area until the mid 20th century when, after a record catch in 1936, the shoals mysteriously declined until the industry effectively disappeared by 1947. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day. Find things to see and do in Scotland where you are always welcome. By the meteorological calendar, the first day of Winter is always 1st December in Scotland; ending on 28th of February. Officially, the Scottish winter runs from the 21st of December through to the 20th March. @tourscotland #winter #scotland #shorts
