Of all the Brexit issues, fishing was arguably the most symbolic.
The UK fleet felt they had everything to gain and almost nothing to lose so how have they done?

The UK fleet will get more share of the quota over the next five years, 15% more in 2021 rising each year hitting 25% in five years time, at which point the UK will achieve full independent coastal status and will decide who gets what in further negotiations. David Stevens is a trawler skipper in Newlyn, he told ITV News: "On the whole negotiators did well… good amounts of quota repatriated”.
