BUD UPDATE

We got into Peterhead on Tuesday morning .We were advised
by the fish buyers to land our Hake as soon as possible so
we went over to Greenhill market and landed them.Sad to
say the price of them were really poor!!Down as low as 70 pence
a kilo for our medium hake ,not near the cost of catching them!!
We landed the rest of our catch on Tuesday afternoon and
sailed again for a few more days fishing.!
