Fresh fish grace Tuesday's market floor - #openforbusiness
More buyers than boxes...
and at £5.80 per kilo for small codling only the buyers with bulging pockets were likely to send any fish away to their customers this morning...
even the solitary shark made good money on a market very much starved of fish since Christmas...
stacked two high, the results of a day's fishing in the Bay for the netter Ajax...
where the bulk of fish were good sized pollack caught moving across the ground...
with yet more gales forecast and another spring tide on it way none of the local businesses lining the Strand in Newlyn are taking any chances.
