Trawlers at work

In the old days when I was at school, I learned methods of fishing from a Geography text-book. The methods are illustrated by drawings instead of photos.

Trawling is one method of fishing. A large wide-mouthed net is dragged along the sea bottom to catch fish. Usually trawlers go in pairs.

With my digital camera on May 4, 2012, I could take some clear photos of two trawlers at work in Tolo Harbour  because the sky was blue and that the trawlers came closer to the shore where I was standing.

To my delight, I learned a “better” lesson that day than that from an old text book many years ago
