Much mackerel makes an appearance at last!


Pretty boats all in a row...



the old harbour cafe has been transformed and is now open as Favorita and serving serving delicious tapas style food with a local twist for you...



the big Spring tide reveals all...



like the hulls fo more modern deep-draughted vessels in berth...



the Winter of Ladram lengthwise dwarfs the bigger beam trawler...



the market earlier in the week saw a big shot of bass...



from the fly-shooter's trip of fish...



name that fish...



fashionable fish...



quality megrim sole...



the blue-fin boys have been in action...



filling the tub once more...



and some decent mackerel haver begun to appear on the auction list...



along with this fine skipjack tuna...



and cracking bream...



decent run of mackerel again...



a handful of reds...



that man Cod on the Butts brings in the catch...



sardines are back on the menu too,,,



another day and it looks like rain...



under a heavily overcast sky...



the view before the harbour opens up...



bringing in the Rowney...



to land and overhaul the gear...



bound away...



cracking lemons...



morte seardines...



and the blackest reef conger...



all whisked away in the blink of an eye as if by magic...



a box of blues...



and a brill or two...



those cuttlefish pots have been AWOL for some time...



Karen of Ladram taking ice before sailing...



Favorita, all set to open today...



easy access to the hull of your punt on the Canners slip...



a moody start to the day.

Stunning weather greats Newlyn this morning for the Monday market!



Looking at the tranquility of the harbour you would never have known storm Amy whipped through over the weekend...

underneath all that ice is the finest seine caught hake...


courtesy of the Accionna...


just some of the hundreds of boxes of MSC Certified ornosh hake landed by the fleet including the Ajax...


Silver Dawn...


Stelissa...


Kellie Marie




the odd JD...

topped off with hake from the Britannia V...


it's a family affair, father and son in action...


top quality tubs...




and more bonito...

late summer scad...


the odd bass...


the work to get the fish away begins...


one big conger...


squid and mackerel...


and some cracking red mullet...


looks like young Shane had a good day with the jigging machine...


black bream make great sashimi apparently...


it's a tight squeeze to get the crabers landed into the waiting vivier truck...


Scotty's latest command...


basking in the morning sun...


is dwarfed by the big crabber...


looks like a fine start to the week...


things will improve once that scaffolding comes down...


one hazy Mount...


heading to the market for bait...


Jeremy gets a hand...


some prefer two wheels to four.
