Controversial methods of Cockle fishing. Cockle boats at low tide in the Wash, ( between Kyngs Lyn and Boston) showing the circles they produce after gunning their engines and going in a large circle to churn up the sea bed and therefore bringing the cockles to the surface. At full low tide they get out and harvest the cockles.
