It's the seine the whole world over......
Netters quick off the mark get their fish back to market mid tide......
looking lean, a rare box of mackerel on the market......
filling the best part of the eastern end of the marke, seine net fish from the Irish vesel, Roise Caitriona.....
with a good slection of fish from whiting......
to haddock......
with some boxes of big haddock......
and plenty of pin hake that given the current market conditions in Spain might struggle to find buyers.....
one or two big cod get the measuring board......
the Tiree registered boat arrived and landed on Sunday morning......
showing off her traditional seiner's round stern....... all the village flags fly at half-mast today to mark the funeral of Tony Stevenson who died last week. Apart from his exploits on the rugby pitch playing for the famous Penzance & Newlyn Pirates and his involvement with swimming and watersports, Tony was a senior partner of WS Stevenson & Sons where his role encompassed the shore side of fish handling, transport and the fish auction.

I remember Tony well - meeting him when I was a young PC in the Cornwall Constabulary at Penzance. I filmed Cornwall Pirates playing Bristol Rugby last night - and was just "Googling" through rugby names I knew in the 1960"s in Penzance. I am saddened to read of Tony's death. I remember him as a really nice guy !
