Inshore fish fetch good prices on a very slack Monday markett
A handful of cod were just some of the top quality whitefish fetching premium prices on a fish starved Monday market after a prolonged period of poor weather passed over the UK...
mackerel were probably by weight the most abundant species...
whereas John Dorys were a little thin on the ground...
best bass were never going to be cheap this morning...
as the harbour woke up to a relatively calm look, though somewhat deceiving as the strong North westerly winds have little effect in the harbour coming off the top of the surrounding land...
nearing completion, Sapphire II is almost finished her MSC safety work which has delayed her fishing career far longer than the skipper and owners might have wished for!
