A Little More on Fish...


OK, not the prettiest of fish, but very tasty, so I was told this morning. Further to my blog yesterday, my friend who had the Dover Sole the other day, yesterday bought down at Winch Road some more Dover Sole, a Skate Wing, and a Turbot that he ate for his main meal yesterday, lucky lucky person...

Indeed, as I said in an earlier blog, fresh fish is still available and can be delivered to your door if required, or should you not be able to get down to Rock-a-Nore Road/Winch Road to collect fish yourself.

It looks like it may be very choppy over coming days, particularly Mon/Tuesday, so take advantage while the fresh fish is still available, you know it makes sense 😉

Hastings Fish: Keep On Keeping On!


The photograph above was taken this morning, about 06.00, and Hastings Fish Market is still open to the trade, and a fishing boat had just been launched from the beach (just out of picture to the left, heading eastwards). Further to my recent blog about Hastings enterprising fish industry, today I had confirmation from someone working down there (photograph above), that fish caught locally is still being sent over to France and Belgium, which is a good job considering that 90% of fish caught by the Hastings fishing fleet is exported! 

Also, I heard from elsewhere that some very tasty Dover Sole was available recently from one of the huts behind the market on the Winch Road, a lovely fish indeed.

Oh yes, and the Government has apparently woken up and started helping fishing ports and boats that are in trouble economically (Guardian).

Be careful folk and keep on keeping on!
