Paddy O'Connell travels the country with his dog, Bob, talking to the people he meets. Arriving in Aberdeenshire, Paddy drops anchor in Peterhead's harbour with local trawlerman Jimmy Buchan, a man who has fishing in his blood. The fortunes of Peterhead's fishing fleet haven't always been smooth, but the town is proud of its harbour which has never been closed by a storm.
