Busy night in Newlyn, full-on landing sardines!

 


There was plenty of sardine action early on Monday evening with all the sardine boats making good landings, most were full up...


filling the western end of the fish market landing berths...


one inshore trawler picked up more than he bargained for, a huge length of nets...

master of the scales, Robert if all smiles with a market full of fish to grade.., 


a doggy landing from the Ajax...


and good to see the boys on the Cornishman taking the trouble to cut out monk cheeks and sae the livers...


and still the they keep coming, the Mayflower heading for the market as the rest of the sardine fleet land...


pump their fish ashore...


with some special visitors this evening from Japan and Indonesia...


here on a fact-finding visit with representatives form the MSC and Seafish coming together to learn from one another.
