Plymouth Marine Studies visit headed up by Dr Simon Ingram.

 End-to-end with fish this morning on the market......
 and the guys were still grading after the auction had started........
down the quay the trip's work is not over yet as Alan the Irishman next to Pete the Cornishman gets his boys to over end the gear.......
one happy skipper, Timmy Boyle washes down the good ship Gary M after an excellent run of fish sees his third landing for the tide go for auction......
 and it's just quality fish all the way.........
back down the quay and there are more reasons to be cheerful part III, another smiling skipper, after arriving at midnight then landing till gone four this morning it's an early start at seven and a quick shower in the offing for TV favourite skipper Elsworth.......
 while down on the market his fish is just being sold.......
at the same time as Simon Ingram and 27 students from the University of Plymouth Marine Studies department including 14 Hong Kong students enjoy a tour of the fish market and auction courstey of Lionel..........
seen here demonstrating how the angler fish attracts potential victims towards its gaping mouth while laying on the sea bed.......
next up, and the cause of some consternation judging by the look on some faces, Lionel points out the differences between two species of ray.......
with the students keen to make notes as they go.
