Fishermen and consumers get raw deal over 'outrageous overcharging' for fish
Consumers are being outrageously overcharged while fishermen have witnessed massive drops in prices being paid for their landings.
The Irish South and West Fishermen's Organisation (ISWFO) revealed that in the past two years there was an average 30% drop in price to the fisherman. However, retail prices have continued to soar, and the fish producers' body claimed some supermarkets and retailers are making a fat 700% profit.
