a sprightly Mr Morley ascends the fish market steps from the deck of the Danmar for the first time in 18 months...
to land a good shot of fish for two hauls...
mainly ray...

females outnumber males in this trip of fish...
almost ready for the sardine season...

looks like the Imogen II is getting her annual paint job...
all you need to go fishing, one trawler kit, net, warps and doors - and a suitable boat of course...
