Monday's not so manic this week.
Doversole, like many fish is an all time favourite for cooling on the bone...
good to see Nigel bashing the JDs and not the dogs this weekend...
unlike most fish where otoliths are taken from the ear, scales are collected from bass...
to determine their age...
with only the one netter on the market prices for hake should be good this morning...
not a common sight on Newlyn's fish market - but what kind of fish is this?...
the hake is a little more common...
indeed it is...
as another shot of Cornish sardines comes ashore...
iced...
to maintain top quality...
before heading off to the waiting lorry transport...
no jokes about how many sharks can you count in this shot...
Gary M looking good as her paint-up nears completion...
Rowse's Chris Tacha all set to take another set of pots to sea...
almost ready to fit back aboard the boat...
as two derricks are better than one...
the old and new colour schemes of the Stevenson fleet...
comparing the old red funnel with the new white...
looking up the harbour...
as Rescue 193 heads for Treliske Hospital from the IoS taking a casuality on board with major injuries, a sight that will be soon be just a memory when the ageing fleet of navy SAR helicopters are replaced by Bristow's Sikorski machines...
netters all set for the next tide...
can anyone help this young man?...
12' boat for sale...
let's hope they leave some for the boats!...
the Mission flag is still flying over the building, someone must be home!
