#FishyFriday heralds the food festival weekend in Porthleven


Don't forget it is Porthleven Food Festival this weekend






Your boats landing fish today are...


so who was it wrote the book, 'Fell off a Cliff'?...



maybe, it was Eileen Dover...



lemon soles also have fat lips like Dovers...



a batch of beautiful #fishyFriday red mullet also from the Elisabeth Veronique...



the mighty monk...



from the stars of last night's Newsnight on BBC - watch the piece about Newlyn from 18:40 in...



just checking prices with base...



just a few of the John Dory now beginning to show in landings...



monk tails don't come much bigger than this...



a serious case of the spots...



the last thing you want to see alongside you when swimming at sea...



6 plus kilo hake, they don't get bigger!...



courtesy of the netter Joy of Ladram who landed this morning...



along with the Ajax....



another trip of #FishyFriday MSC Certified hake...



all making their way out the market doors...



happy in his work as ever...



the belly of  the beast that is the tub gurnard...



a bag o' scollies...



the most cracking of whiting you are likely to see grace a fishmongers counter



there are red and redder mullet...




the crabbers are back in action...



and for some, there is yet more work to do on the trawl...



be on your guard, the Admiral is back in town...



another Islander...



the weather will keep the inshore boats in berth today...



which will have young Nigel champing at the bit...



some look good from behind, some just functional...



looking better by the day...



wooden history...



and soon to be history as the old Jewson building awaits the demolition team to maake way for the new Lidl supermarket...



a little fresh this morning...



ensuring the prom gets a good soaking...



this miner's portrait must have a name?
