Fishy Friday, lots of monks about
Just some of the pollack from the Ajax's white fish haul...
which included plenty of adult cod - no shortage of grandad cod in ICES Area VII!...
and just one day's hake, over 100 boxes...
the freshest, finest Fishy Friday inshore monk tails this side of the Lizard...
and the cheeks to go with them...
get a swift covering of ice to keep them chilled till the auctioneer gets round...
plenty of ice on the hake from the Ajax...
as the auction gets under way...
never mind the Bass, Capn' Cod goes for the squid instead...
and talking of Butts here's the real thing weighing in at almost a stone (14lb = 1 stone = 6.35 Kg) in old money...
skipper and owner keeping an ear open for the prices this morning...
one of the latest beam trawlers to join the fleet at Brixham, the Sarah Louise...
all set to take boxes back on board.
