Great weather for ducks.... but not for fish!



Where there are massive parts of the UK desperate for rain to ease the drought issues, I think it's only the water companies and ducks who are happy with this weeks weather. 
To say it's been a bit wet, is an understatement. 

I was out and about in Cardiff today and at some points, I would have been better off wearing a wet suit and flippers, than a business suit and shoes.

But as I sit here moaning about the weather, our brave fishermen have been out, doing their thing, to keep us in supply of some fabulous fresh fish.

"Jessica Lynn - Day Boat"

The "Jessica Lynn" and her sea hardy skipper Tom Russell of Poole, have had a trying couple of days. Landings have proved difficult due to strong currents and high winds. 
Nonetheless, Tom has managed to land a small, yet perfect selection of fish!

"South Coast - Brixham/Plymouth"

It's not been an easy week so far for the South Coast fishermen either. Despite the challenging weather conditions, a number of brave Brixham vessels have managed to land great fish you can enjoy. 

However, the quantities are small, so call your local branch before they're all gone.

"William Sampson", "James RH" and "Admiral Grenville" 
Newlyn

You can see a theme here guys, right? A number of challenging days on the high seas for the fishermen of Newlyn too.  The skippers and crews of the above vessels have braved the elements, to bring us a range of outstanding South Coast beauties.
