Fish-free #FishyFriday - almost!
With gales sweeping across the south west earlier in the week there was not a single box of fish on the market floor this morning...
save for two dozen boxes of handline mackerel that were held in the fridge overnight...
which were swiftly whisked across the market floor on their way up the line...
most of the netting fleet sailed yesterday and will make their first landings early next week...
the lights might be on but there is no one aboard the Admiral Gordon up on the slip.
