Fisherboats



It was a raining trip and we were drenched a couple of times while on the bike but an afternoon trip to nowhere ended with these pictures.
We saw fisherboats coming back to the jetty with their day's catch. I've not seen so much seafood in one place in my life, not even in the wet markets here. There were baskets and baskets of different fishes. I saw crabs, longustines, shellfish, plentiful squids and many many fishes that I don't know by name.
And they were like a production line, very systematic, well-organized and lightning speed in sorting out the different species, different sizes and the good and bad. They then put the fishes in crashed ice in different baskets and stored in a secret compartment under the board of the boat, to be sold, I suppose.

The production line ran like clockwork, all done by boys no older than 15.
I was impressed ... and seeing this made that day trip worth it.
