Fish Producers' Association explains the impact on the Manx fleet
Up to 95 per cent of the Island's fishing industry has shut down overnight.
That's from David Beard of the Fish Producers' Association.
He says like many businesses the Manx fleet has been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic.
Currently boats are still going out, however the fleet has been split and social distancing measures are being enforced.
Mr Beard says it marks a major change for the industry:
