lovely inshore lemons...
and plenty of line caught pollack...
keep the inshore guys busy...

on a busy mainly inshore caught fish market...

keeping the Ivan Ellen and the boys busy...

visiting Brixham beaner Angel Emiel landed this morning...
sporting her modern design, bulbous bow and bow thruster...
a classic...
with a need for a little TLC below the waterline...
and above, showing what happens when fresh (rain) water gets to wood...
there's always a few strange beasts in Newlyn lurking around the corners
a classic painting from the 'father' of the Newlyn School of Art in self-portrait mode...
showing his hugely skillful brushwork...
to create the faces of his subjects...
which is up for auction at the forthcoming sale at WH Lane.
