A few days then it's a fine #FishyFriday in Newlyn


Inshore trawler Still Waters in to land after a few day hauls...


and good to see that down the fishroom is the next generation putting in the graft...


as skipper/father Richard gets a hand landing the catch...



then it's time to pick up a few crabs claws for a well-earned snack...



before the fish head off to be sorted and weighed...


alongside young Gary, hand grading mackerel...


before recording the catch weights on auction landing sheet...


Friday's market saw a few inshore trips with ray wings...


some huge turbot...

plenty of bass...


more mackerel...


and good supplies of crab paws...


handline bass...


ring-net sardines...


and a few line caught pollack rounded off the week's landings...


with most of the fleet at sea...


through square window...


around midday and midnight for high-water today...


one of those things you should never find on a fishing boat, the other two are a soldier and a watering can...


on the lookout for an easy breakfast...


almost every spare yacht berth was taken this morning with boats from...


the Netherlands...


Ireland...


the USA


and UK...


teenage beam trawler and an elder...
