Friday night to Monday morning.


Boats sailing from Newlyn over the last few days.


Friday evening and a fresh load of fish boxes go back aboard the Enterprise to be store down the fishroom...


from where Juicy appears, must be cold down there...


top sardine boat heads back to a berth after a long night's fishing...


definitely not a weekend's only fine weather yellow-welly yacht...


the little orange crabber wants to be like the big blue one when it grows up...


on Monday morning's market there's plenty of top quality inshore fish like these John Dory...


and brill...


there's no way 8 scallops would have made it to market on any of the boats I worked on #quicksnack...


more JDs...


and monk tails...


the flat bottomed red gurnard...


the big beam trawler t georges put ashore plenty of megrim soles...


while mackerel are still proving hard to find in this part of the world...


delicious Dovers...


early morning market action...


more bass than mackerel this morning...


though thankfully sardines are plentiful...


all hands to cutting up bait aboard the Nazarene...


sailing time for the Girl Pamela off for another day on the crabs...


name these fish...


young Mr Ashworth in action aboard the crabber...


for one company the future is now no longer orange but turquoise it seems...


classic lines of a classic yacht.
