First time in weeks there have been a significant number of boxes put through the steam cleaner...... the Sapphire takes on fuel after landing...... with around 8 tons of crab to come ashore the Intuition moves out to allow the Emma Louise to pull back and allow her to get to the waiting vivier lorry..... black gold on the market...... making its mark..... as the fickle black finger tallies the scales....... there's even a few mullet for auction...... along with a box of sprats..... careful picking by a safe pair of CEFAS hands removes an otolith from a small haddock.....
beginning to land her brown crab...... ahead of the Emma Louise...... no more backs of pickups running in foul water with these beauties...... another sepia ink masterpiece...... and a crucial part of the WS&S installation piece.....with a huge trip from the St Georges which included a few boxes of faithful old pouts, or as they are known locally, 'bothicks'...... just to keep the 'mongers happy there's a bit of bass being caught to boot!
