A Devon fishing market group has seen its most profitable year, despite fears the industry would suffer as a result of Brexit, local industry bosses say.
More than £43.6m worth of fish was landed at Brixham in 2021, Brixham Trawler Agents reported, saying it was record-breaking.
The fishing organisation, which began in 2011, takes on market administration work so vessels do not have to.

In 2020, £35.8m of fish was landed in Brixham, and £39.2m in 2019.
The closest year to the 2021 total was 2017, with £40.3m worth of fish landed, the agents said.
