Fishermen are one of the fields of work that are never quiet, always present from generation to generation. The role of fishermen as fish catchers is very important in the economic aspect, providing basic needs. Almost all humans in the world consume fish, shrimp, squid and various other side dishes. Without fishermen working, a country will be in chaos in providing basic fish needs.
Fishermen can catch fish in various ways, some use ships, boats, to nets or trawls like nets. In the photo I took, there are traditional fishermen, namely fishermen who catch fish only using nets. These fishermen do not need boats, they only go down into the river with their feet.
When the water recedes, the fishermen decide to continue going down into the river. When the river water is chest high or lower, they are free to throw nets to catch fish. A good net to throw is a net that is wide open. That way the fish obtained will be more optimal, even though at that time there were many fish in the river flow.
After throwing the net several times, the fisherman does not forget to collect the fish that enter the net. However, there is no smooth work, there are only obstacles and challenges. When some types of sea snails with spiny shells accidentally get caught in the net, the fisherman is forced to go up to the land to clean the sea creatures. The fisherman patiently removes the thorns and thistles that are caught in his net. Then he goes back down to the river to cast the net.
Wow... Very cool my friend, I am very entertained by your post😊
Thank you very much, friend.
Excellent photos, especially the first one, the way you capture the movement of the falling net I find fascinating!
Thank you friend, long time no see, so glad you said hello
