Big blondes in a box.
Hake from the netter Ajax graced the market floor this morning, with nearly two and a half tons of 2-3kg fish making up the bulk of the catch........
at the other end of the auction hall, fish boxes stretched as from end-to-end........
top quality monk from the beamer Sapphire........
no time to sit on the fence with some hectic bidding.........
good sized cod are referred to as 'green' in many parts of the UK, not hard to see why........
just two specimen big blondes weighed in at 27 kg.......
early signs of cuttlefish are beginning to appear heralding the start of another black gold rush for the beamers.......
with strong sou'easterly winds over the weekend lashing the Bay the Scillonian took up a more sheltered berth inside Penzance Harbour.
