Jake's birthday - catchin' summer mackerel!
Visiting beamers, Ora et Labora and Kees Korf in for the weekend giving their Dutch crews from Urk a well earned break. These boats do not fish on Sundays.
Not so one Jake Freethy on 'Go for It', despite the fact that it was Jake's birthday! Up at six and back, landed before 9am with 28 stone (approx 180Kg) of best Cornish mackerel.After sorting, the fish are weighed.....
tallied....and then iced in the chill room....
a quick total of the landing before.....the boxes go back aboard the boat as the next tosher comes to land....
which happens to be Bobby 'Boxer' Laity from Porthleven........
two punts head back to the pontoon berths......
the Hannah G from St Ives takes back boxes for the next trip.....
Boxer sees his day's catch going up on the crane...
Chris and Jeremy head in for a quick trawlfish landing.....
and our gull friends still seem incapable of earning a living as they should!
