Fishy Friday
Thanks to the new info box on the blog and Emma in the harbour office everyone knows the Twilight III was landing this morning...
and she had a good few big turbot...
magnifique megrims...
while Roger on the Imogen II is still trying to hit on the elusive JDs in any numbers...
nice shot of some local villians, er I mean fish buyers...
and the there's plenty for the guys to choose from this morning...
with the settled weather the punts can finally get out of the harbour to make up for the worst start to a years since 1979...
all set for a night's work, most of the local sardine fleet back in berth after landing in the early hours...
the inshore trawler, Defiant is back...
two of the Dreckly boys head for home...
and unlike the Bay, its Cloudy in the harbour...
where there's a whelk 'ome in the hillsides...
the crowded deck of an inshore scalloper...
a smile and a wave from one of the port's grandees, Dennis Pascoe...
the view from Australia...
and for some, there's always a smile for the camera.
