  • The Yorkshire coast fishery has long been part of the Yorkshire economy for centuries. The 114-mile (183 km) Yorkshire Coast, from the River Tees to the River Humber, has many ports both small and large where the fishing trade thrives. The historic ports at Hull and Whitby are important locations for the landing and processing of fish and shellfish. Scarborough and Bridlington are also sites of commercial fishing. The fishing industry has been in decline since the mid to late 20th century due to labour problems, fishing quotas and decommissioning schemes. Bridlington is the largest shellfish port in Europe with regular exports abroad which are mostly to European countries. The Yorkshire and The Humber statistical region is the second largest fishing industry in the United Kingdom (after Scotland) in terms of the number of people who work in the industry. (en)
