Queen Scallop fishermen are being invited to widen the amount of species they can fish.
The Department of Environment, Food & Agriculture is encouraging them to apply for grants until November 18 to diversify which species they can catch.
DEFA Minister, Geoffrey Boot MHK, says supporting the local fishing trade and increasing the resilience of the Manx fleet is 'of great importance'.
Those in the trade wishing to get involved are being invited to visit www.gov.im/QSCgrants.
