Cornish Sardine skipper Stefan fills her up!

With 10 tons aboard for a night's work........
the White Heather is just put down by the head, the Cygnus GM44 carries the weight well........
one brail at a time the Cornish Sardines come ashore......
and are swung over the waiting tubs.........
before the clip is pulled to release the fish.........
meanwhile, the big blue cat Lyonesse which lands her fish catch direct to FalFish takes back a full set of tubs ready for the coming night's work.......
the two boats having around 20 tons between them.......
time for awash down of the quay........
back in the fish market the mornings sale is coming to an end........
with good landings of mackerel still coming overland from St Ives  in evidence........



a classic small inshore boat for sale, this traditional wooden boat built by Clifford Adams of Looe in 1964 has just had a paint up and been anti-fouled, boat electrics include a fish finder and bilge pump, contact Colin on 07702 693660 offers on £2850 with a boat trailer and engine spares........ 
time to grab what you can from 'up Drift, give Mark a call on 07779635105 to see what tuna and 5-7" mono nets are going along with buoys, floats and ropes........

what's Debbie been up to now?!
