Black and white: Traditional fisherman life

Life as a fisherman is certainly not easy even though all the businesses we run must have obstacles and twists and turns, which are mentioned as fishermen are people who have a good understanding of the conditions faced, such as being tossed about in the sea until an accident that results in a loss lives

But this time there is a different story that I tried to write, which is about local fishermen in Aceh who struggle to earn a fortune, although not too much is obtained but enough to support their families.

Aceh is known to have a variety of cultures, even known worldwide, but there is even more interesting that is "traditional fisherman", fishermen are different from fishermen who usually look for fish using boots to the middle of the sea.

What is meant by traditional fishermen is "trawling" they work from the beach from morning to late evening, trawling requires a minimum of 10 people, it also depends on the size or length of the trawl that is made.

First, they use a small boat to bring the nets that have been processed up to tens of meters into the sea and released where there is a herd of fish, even the distance is pretty much reaching 1 kilometer from the land.

To determine the location where the fish gather, they say they only see the sea situation where seagulls fly while looking for fish, it is a natural code that is used by fishermen before landing.

I asked some fishermen about how to work trawling, they explained after the net was taken to the middle of the sea and then tied with a rope, then the rope was pulled slowly tied around the waist, but I saw that there were some teenagers also trawling.

They said it did not matter if the teenager joined trawling, provided they were able to withstand low back pain for hours.

The heat of the sun does not give up for them to work, even they are able to repeat up to 5 rounds a day, they only remind to look for lots of fish so they can be sold and the results brought home to their respective families.

I was thinking about how the condition of the waist of this traditional fisherman has been running for a long time, sorry if there is an error explanation or error in this post, I ask this story directly to the fisherman to become routine work every day.
