In the late evening before sundown islanders like to go night fishing. We were invited to go on a night fishing trip by our boatmen friends. We all climbed onto a small motorized fishing boat. We set off a little before sundown and anchored just a little beyond the harbor which was determined by the pilot as a probably fishing spot. The engine was shut off. Reels with fishing line were brought out. A bait was attached to the hook and the lines was flung by hand as far as possible into the water. After a while a fish would take it the line. We spent an hour or so and caught a few fish before returning ashore. |
