#fish24 #seafoodfromscotland Iโ€™m often asked why our langoustine have such a nice colour to them compared to other places round the country- the reason is down to using ground bait to mimic the overflow that sometimes comes from a certain factory in Glasgow #irnbru

#fish24 Not so good the last haul - a wee stone which isnโ€™t the best for keeping the quality ๐Ÿ˜ข Also a big lump of old mid water trawl which mustโ€™ve been lost 20+ years ago - itโ€™s bundled up for the skip. Landed and then back to the marina to strip the net drum for repair.

#Fish24 Joys of the job ! Large tree trunk stuck in the net which distorts the meshes and lets the prawns scuttle off to fight another day ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

#Fish24 First haul in - bit premature as the net unfortunately stuck on something - no damage thankfully! Back out and try again
