One man has 100 on best ormering tide for 30 years

ISLANDERS queued up to sell their catches at a fishmonger's yesterday after what has been called the best ormering tide for 30 years.

Seafresh owner Andy Le Prevost said between 15 and 20 people arrived at his shop laden with shellfish to sell.

Mr Le Prevost said there were always a few people wanting to sell their catch after an ormering tide, but that they usually turned up with between 15 and 20 ormers.

'This time, everyone had between 50 and 60 and one man had 100. We probably won't see that again for a long, long time.'
