Wednesday dawns
Sea Spray looking for pollack - with the monthly quota at just 12 tons many of the newlyn boats caught theirs in just three days - not difficult at this time of year when the pollack are in abundance - shame none of the boats were able to catch a single pollack in January and february because of the inclement weather...
just the one onshore trawler on the market tgis morning...
the market was cleared in minutes after a 6am start...
and left spotless soon enough...
new boxes now arrived for the Hosking fleet, Stelissa and Silver Dawn...
paint up and hull maintenance time for the William Stevenson...
the worms have been feeding well of late...
so new timber fenders have been ordered...
fly past on a dull morning...
waiting for boxes, the Hosking fleet at rest...
a South Devon tourist...
blue sterns...
as a little early morning light falls around the Mount.
