The shallow, sandy grounds of the North Sea off the Lincolnshire coast provide an ideal habitat for plaice, making it a key target species for local trawlers operating from ports like Grimsby and Boston. This abundant local resource underpins a substantial part of the region's fishing heritage and current economic activity.
