Monday morning's market in Newlyn - stacked with fish destined for our tables.


Sunday afternoon saw the boats landing - some of the fleet like the Sapphire II are still continuing to fish despite the drop in demand...



including the netter Stelissa which has a full trip of hake on board taken from the banks 170 miles west of Newlyn...



with some of the fish she landed destined for the market at Brixham...


with the remainder stacked nigh on the market in Newlyn waiting to be sorted...


alongside fish from the Sapphire II...


and a trip of quality sized white fish like these big haddock from the Britannia V...


helping to fill the western end of the market...



along with fish from three bean trawlers and the netter Ocean Pride...


and stacked 4 or 5 high for the auction...


with a mix of beam trawl fish...



and net fish there's plenty for buyers like George Cleave to choose from..



so fingers crossed for the guys that the demand is there to keep prices workable so that there are still steady supplies of fish available across the UK.
