#FishyFriday in Newlyn
At the end of a turbulent week fish is still being landed in quantity form the Newlyn fleet, like this specimen turbot from the inshore trawler New Venture...
along with ray wings...
John Dory...
red mullet...
brill...
hake...
and shellfish like these scallops, squid and octopus...
name this big flat fish landed by the Sapphire II...
and a small trip of hake from the netter Britannia V...
Ocean Fish's latest beam trawler to join the fleet, Le Men Dhu landed a nice little trip of quality flats...
while the Sapphire II filled the grader chill room with monk, megrim and other prime fish...
along with plenty of cuttles...
the number of boats now in port has risen...
the boats that landed big trips of pollack amongst them...
let's hope this notice in the window of the Fishermen's Cafe and the photo of all the regular merchants on Newlyn's fish market will not have faded too much from the sun by the time it comes down!
