Local people use a traditional conventional method of catching seafood which makes use of nets to catch fish near the seashore in the early morning.
|
At the cracking dawn, fishermen often get up early to prepare tools and equipment so they can head out to the sea for a big catch.
|
The work is done by a group of around 20 to 30 people, using a net that stretches for about thousands of metres in length.
|
Each turn takes around 30 minutes if local people row their boat out to sea to set up the net.
|
The net is pulled ashore along with the fish.
|
On the shore, the fishermen divide themselves into two teams and hold one end each to haul the net in.
|
The fish are classified before being sent to the market to be sold.
|
Earnings are shared equally among the members.
