Misty mizzly Monday morning in Newlyn.


Signs that sardines will soon be sizzling on BBQs up and down the country as the boats take it in turn coming up on the hard for a bottom scrub and below the waterline check for anode wear...



another landing of octopus looks on the cards as he Sparkling Line heads for the iceworks berth...



just the netter Ajax landing hake...



to a busy auction floor...



along with the Britanna V...



this tope is too big for the box...



and a sample of common shellfish landed eery day in Newlyn, spider crab, brown crab, crawfish and lobster...



while there were plenty of monk tails from the Stelissa...



sme cracking red bream from the Claude Henry...



and plenty of smoothhounds and dogs to spoil  the party for tyhe netter...



no surprises that ther western end of the market was chocker with octopus...



and an unequivocal message for them not to be left in the fridge!...



good to see a few more of these in the fridge though...



along with the king of sustainable fishing, Mr Smith who only fishes with lines aboard the Maverick...



as does the rather unusually named, Whitby registered, Chutney, tyhere must be a good story behind that one...



a welcome sight, brown crab and lobster coming ashore again...



landing time for the Southern Spirit...



landing craft IoS Steamship's inter-island freight boat, Gugh...



Asthore ahead...



a quick tow job for Jeremy...



bringing in the survey boat, Spectrum 1...



while the local workboat Overbargh prepares for another day working on the replacement of quay fenders.
