Welcome to Through the Gaps, the UK fishing industry's most comprehensive information and image resource. Newlyn is England's largest fish market and where over 50 species are regularly landed from handline, trawl, net, ring net and pot vessels including #MSC Certified #Hake, #Cornish Sardine, handlined bass, pollack and mackerel. Art work, graphics and digital fishing industry images available from stock or on commission.
Talk from the fish buyers steam up the windows of the market cafe........
leaving an empty auction hall and empty boxes on another quiet morning.......
with just the one beam trawler landed........
at the end of the quay the Govenek of Ladram makes ready to sail after the worst of a big spring tide passes......
but the Billy Rowney won't be going anywhere for a few days till the gear is put back together......
apprehension, botheration, consternation, desperation, exasperation, frustration, gentrification, hallucination - the Inspiration moves on a gentle run in the harbour.......
nowadays there's plenty of fish and not enough boats at sea to catch them........
over in Penzance wet dock, work continues to change the face of long-time resident Sea King, now name changed to My Lady Norma 1........
outside the dock, Scillonian III makes her way astern to the pierhead before embarking on one of the few reamining voyages to the Scillies for the year........
not, not under command, two reds up in the harbour..........
plenty of new construction work underway on the Scillies judging by the cargo waiting to go aboard the Gry Maritha.
