An almost fishless #FishyFriday in Newlyn!


With fish from just two boats...


there were many more buyers than boxes...


who were all keen to get away with their morning's haul...


of pollack from the netter, Serene...


and a few flats form the Billy Rowney back in port after just the one haul...


early start for the netter, Ygraine...


while the Cornishman has just one more night in port...


at the end of the Mary Williams pier...


aided by the on-board crane...


12 days worth of fish are being swung ashore to the back of one of two waiting lorrys...


from the Fleetwood registred flag of convenience boat, Udra...


all duly noted by food blogger and Great British Shellfish guru, Mike Warner...


the water hose reel is sporting a new set of wheels that look a little more durable than the previous models...


high-water landing...


for the Udra...


then it's time to repair to the Harbour Cafe for breakfast...


while the resolute land's her morning's haul of sardines...


and the Udra gets ready to fill the second lorry.
