Ifit's in the fridge.
A handful of buyers huddle outside the market fridge this dark Wednesday morning...
while the remainder haggle over the handful of boxes of fish that were landed by a few hardy inshore boats who braved the weather yesterday...
and with the weather poor enough to keep all the inshore boats in port for the foreseeable future and the rest of the fleet, almost all of whom sailed yesterday toughing out heavy seas, it is likely that the market boxes won't see any quantity of fish until the weekend...
premium prices for premium fish today...
the Padstow netter Charisma is the only netter still in port but due to sail today.
