Where do you put your tacklebox? I think I’ll stick with a boat, but thanks for the pic. I fish for fun, I think they are fishing to feed their family. Good Post!

Well it’s an interesting one… They pass the positions on from father to son and it is only when the conditions are just right that it is productive - but when it is it is very productive. Sri Lanka has interesting fishing tehniques due to the abundance of fish just off shore.

What an incredible photo, imagine sitting on that pole all day waiting for a fish to swim underneath. You have to admire their determination, but I’d never do that.
