Dodging in heavy weather.


Hard to believe the forecast is for a heatwave tomorrow as a gale sweeps across the Western Approaches as the majority of the Newlyn fleet and visiting Scottish prawn trawlers are tied up safely in port...


though we find that there are a few French trawlers fishing south of the Scillys this morning and the local beam trawler, Aaltje Adriaante is currently dodging in the lee off the north coast of Cornwall.
