Monday morning in Newlyn.


Another day starts for Jamie Roberts aboard the Three Jays...


while inside the fish market there is just the one beam trawler and a handful of inshore trawlers along with two mystery netters this morning...


more like a box of snakes...


cod showing off their blood-red gills...


the plaice's tail...


the head of the meg, as megrim sole are known...


young Roger Nowell's haul of John Dory...


from a sea of them...


though Tom on the Harvest Reaper managed to steal a few this trip...


while Bracken scooped up a few reds...


and a handful of haddock...


a solitary prize specimen of a John Dory...


with its remarkable tail...


while Mr Curtiss stuck to his soles...


all of the boats seemed to get lucky...


 with a single bit butt each...


though mystery netter one, the Ygraine's was not quite...


the beast from the Elisabeth Veronique...


you know where you are...


almost celestial this morning...


and rays of sunshine are not the only rays on the market...


but there was another big shot of hake from the other mystery netter, the Ajax...


her fish getting the once-over form the buyers...


with keen bidding and good prices...


Radio 4's In Business production team were on the market this morning talking here to Paul Trebilcock from the CFPO about Brexit and the future of fishing from a Newlyn,perspective...


with a few hake ear-wigging the conversation form their boxes...


T is for turbot...


and H is for MSC Certified Cornish hake...


two inshore trawlers queue for ice...


one VHF radio for sale, a bargain!
