crawfish...
and plenty of hake...
there's even some scad to try, a tasty oily fish that doesn't often show up on fishmonger's counters...
more JDs...
there's no question what these are...
pristine turbot...
and a good selection of ray, a fish that's great to introduce to the timorous eaters or kids as there are no bones to speak of...
all we need now is the sunshine to go with these new season sardines...
megrims, staple diet for the trawl fleet...
more JDs...
I can see Tom's face now when the cod-end appeared full of these guys...
scallops are landed in bags by the dozen...
more than tasty in a stew...
the mighty mackerel...
another fine fish grilled whole...
big squid, rare as hen's teeth these days with the big mesh sizes that trawlers now work...
brill, a must try if you like fleshy white flatfish...
the en passage yachts this year seem on average bigger than usual...
a beast of a fishing machine, Mollie May...
dredging beast, Lantic Bay...
a bevy of visiting inshore trawlers.
