Weekend action in Newlyn.




Resurgan makes her way in through the gaps...


she is now one of six currently in service fishing from the company that once boasted being the largest privately owned fishing fleet in Europe...


looks like someone found a missing trawl door...


while the Cornsh sardine fleet wait patiently on their pontoon berths...


there's still plenty of work to be done on the quayside preparing their ring nets...


special berth...



there's also plenty of work to be done on the St Georges...


with new steel being welded in place...


to repair her worn sides...


Bon Accord the latest crabber to join the Rowse fleet with a stash of pots waiting on the quay to be deployed...


along with several hundred more pots...


stacked five high further up the quay...


Brixham registered stern trawler Angelina taking time out in Newlyn, wouldn't take much of a sea to get your boots wet aboard her...


another visiting trawler, the 10m FY33 Caralee from Fowey


young Roger Nowell downsized from his last vessel the Imogen III to the very tidy looking ex-Brixham trawler Eloise...


Brixham provides yet another visitor in the shape of the 


KCJ Rose, currently rigged for stern trawling...


never a good sign to see one of the big beam trawlers with heavy weights in the side deck...


normally an indication that they will be against the quayside for some time...


who knows what thew future of the Lisa Jacqueline will bring...



tidy scalloper working deck.
