Fishing boats leave the harbour of Calais on January 25, 2018 to take part in a blockade to protest against electric pulse fishing practiced by fishermen from Netherlands. French fishermen blocked the port of Calais, preventing cross-Channel ferries arriving or departing, and a road leading to the port of Boulogne-sur-Mer, about 30 kilometres (20 miles) southwest of Calais, to demand a ban on electric pulse fishing in the North Sea. Pulse fishing involves dragging electrically-charged lines just above the seafloor that shock marine life up from low-lying positions into trawling nets.
