Full-on #FF fishy Friday fever!
Just time to roll a cigarette before the next set of nets comes ashore - at the end of every trip the skipper will select the tires of bets with the most damaged nets to come ashore and be repaired......
a brace of sharks keep a beady eye on the market...
along with these hake from the Ajax...
these red mullet add a splash of colour to the proceedings...
half full and mostly with net fish with only two beam trawlers on the market...
two auctions get the fish sold more quickly...
as the Sparkling Line's fish will testify...
these rays don't come much fresher...
stack 'e m high...
and keep them covered...
plenty of hake on the market from the three net boats to land....
the view up the harbour at 6.30 am...
away in the distance the crabber Intuition can be seen on the slip waiting to get her new propeller fitted...
clearish skies off to the South.
