From 0 to 100 in a single shot.

It’s a long-held truth that fishing is unpredictable—it’s called 'fishing,' not 'catching' for a reason. This unpredictability was keenly felt by the Newlyn fleet throughout October, which saw near-zero tons landed across the entire month. The start of November continued this difficult trend. In recent days, however, there had been minor but noticeable improvements in the catches and the quality of the fish. This subtle shift culminated unexpectedly when the vessel Inter-Nos ringed an extraordinary haul: over 100 tons in a single net. Given the tough period the fleet had just endured, Inter-nos skipper Will was then able to share his significant catch. With several other boats nearby, this single shot was enough to successfully fill the fish holds of three additional vessels. This exceptional moment has provided a much-needed lift for the community after a challenging period on the grounds. Newlyn's fishing community thrives on these who make a living going out Through the Gaps. The fishermen of Newlyn land the finest handline, trawl, net and pot caught fish and shellfish daily so that Michelin starred Cornish chefs like Nathan Outlaw can source #MSCCertified #Hake, #Sardine. Digital fishing images are available from stock or on commission. Come and enjoy the fantastic light to draw or paint in the footsteps of the Newlyn School.
