Fishing

The Island’s fishing industry is at the heart of Jersey’s heritage and culture and remains an integral part of day-to-day business within the Port of Jersey.

Similarly, leisure fishing is ever popular with local Jersey people and visitors alike as Jersey waters offer endless fun for amateur and professional anglers.
