Busy Newlyn fish market for Cefas.


Cefas Sam desperately trying to stay one step ahead of the buyers as the auction moves round the market........
a handful of early market visitors make notes......
there's evidence of a black gold trail.......
and with over 20 tubs of cuttles for the Chloe T alone, at around £3 per kilo, that's nearly £1200 a tub........
which means that all hands are lagged in sepia ink........
as they box the fish.......
the William Harvey is up for sale, more pics on the Fishing Boats for Sale page.....
from the days of the little known Cornish Calcified Seaweed Company at Truro......
plenty of work still to do on the Jacoba's new dredges......
this week should see a fleet of luggers and other traditional working boats begin to fill the almost empty historic Old Quay in Newlyn, all set for Painting Day.........
maybe they were just fed up trying to think of a name for her?
