First Monday market for 2025 in Newlyn.

The rain, it hath stoppeth...


but pollack make a showing for the first time this year...


the market was well supplied with a mix of mainly trawl and beam trawl fish...


along with fish from the inshore boats, many of whom had good shots of bass to show for the weekend's work...


tub gurnard...


ray...


Dover solew...


and dogs kept the buyers busy bidding online...


with plenty of plaice...


and megrims from the two big beam trawlers to land...


along with the odd eight-legger...


Tom managed to get away for the first time this year with the Guardian...


and a handful of red mullet topped off the top quality prize for the auction...


with the big spring tide coming to an end the netting fleet will look to sail later today...


the lights are on and she's ready to sail...


as is the Enterpise, which will see a crew change in the wheelhouse today...


there's a fine pair, laying bow-to-stern...


fish transport ready for the road...


big tides allow the bigger boats to ride on the cradle and up the slipway...


the old quay is all set for a bit of serious weeding come this weekend...
