Tuesday's market full of fine fish #eatmorefish


Ene-to-end with fish this morning...


great shot of ray from the Shiralee, nice one Plugger :-)...


just a few of the 1000kg of turbot from the Stelissa...


all putting smiles on the faces of the buyers, Ryan in charge of selling...


it's Dory time...


ring-a-ding ling...


and best bass from the Cynthia...


cracking start to the day as the boats queue for ice...


not such a common site, Spanish longline picked up by a beamer...


aftermath of the Pirates on the Prom...


looks like the Cider took a hamering!

Today's @piratesonprom means 14,154 gold coins to the boys who go down to the sea in lifeboats AAAAARRRGGGHHHH!!


Never mind the weather as long as we're together - click the image to see some of the 14000+ #piratesonprom who braved the heavy skies - including Johnny Depp at least once.

Ooooohh Aaaargh - not quite 14,231 @PiratesonProm - there were 77 short!!!!!



Let us not forget that at the end of the day the real winners are the RNLI - every scurvy pirate who made it to the prom gave a gold £1 coin in entrance money so after today's world record attempt the Penlee lifeboat's chest is £14000 to the good - well done to all the pirates who braved the slightly inclement weather - see you next time!


It's a shellfish kind of day in Newlyn


Good to see the Intuition back in action feeding the nation with the best brown crab...

 



while the Emma lands to the waiting lorry...




 its all in the timing getting those bongos to swing into the lorry...



it's scalloping time of the year...


this is what the deck of a modern scalloper looks like rigged ready for action.

Picture puzzle


Who looks out of this wheelhouse window and on which boat?

Keeping track of the netter Ajax


For a change the netter Ajax is fishing within range of the AIS tracking systems. Looks like she has just been steaming back westwards to pick up the next tier of nets.
