Mid-week market in Newlyn
Inshore boats made most of the landings this morning with signs...
there are still good shots of ray to be had...
along with a few John Dory...
while the handliners working close inshore managed to pick up good shots of pollack...
bass...
and mackerel...
others found some old backing ropes...
with fish in short supply prices are sky-high...
though the forecast is giving up to 70mph gusts later today...
which is why only the big beam trawlers and the Crystal Sea are still at sea fishing.
