Ellis Hoey has always felt drawn to the sea. A keen fisherman from the age of twelve, he would often go out angling in the dead of winter, casting his line from the edge of piers in the hope of landing some whiting to take home for supper. The prospect of being caught out by a freak wave only added to his sense of excitement. Four years later, the lure of netting a prize catch in the face of the elements remains just as beguiling. “I’m not nervous. You have to work through the elements,” he says. “You have to overcome your fears.” Whilst his twin brother has opted to pursue a plumbing course at their local vocational college in Hartlepool, for Ellis, his boyhood pastime has taken on new meaning. Back in Whitby, a small coastal town in Yorkshire, he has enrolled at a local fishing school opened in 2002, which offers training to youngsters intent on becoming seamen.
