Village shipyard builds coracles for salmon fishing.
They are going all out in the village of Cenarth, Carmarthenshire to net more salmon to help wartime food supplys. Many coracle fishermen have been called to active service and the few remaining work hard, often doing 19 hours a day on the Tivy River when the conditions are favourable for fishing.
Seen here returning from a days fishing is Fred Llewellyn aged 73 and has been coracle fishing for the past 58 years.
