First, and slightly foggy #FishyFriday in May.



Apparently, there's a bit of a do this weekend...

but this morning the market is full of #FishyFriday fish, plenty of scallops...


brill...


even congers...


John Dory, turbot...


and red mullet from the trio of beam trawlers to have their fish sold...


even they are now catching Mediterranean octopus, unheard of before now...


more usual, are the catches of megrim sole...


monk tails...


and Dover sole...


small quantities of cuttles...


plenty more bags of scallops from the visiting scallopers...


along with the white fish from the visiting Scottish prawn boat, Orion which landed yesterday and went straight back to sea fishing west of the Scillys...


having just steamed down from Scotland a few days ago...


among the landing were dory...


and head-on monk...


Border Force are out and about...


as another scalloper gets underway...


from the visiting fleet...


life aboard the Jen-T, it's not only the boat that gets a wash down!
