FERNANDO III
Báscula
Since 2003, the gigant humbodlt squid got to the cold waters of the central part of Chile. It came with a strong hot current, but in time the squid stayed and prospered. Eventualy devouring most othe fish left from industrial fishing , the traditional fishermen saw in this the last nail in their business coffin.
In time, they developed a method to capture this creature and now is the most important product.
The traditional fishing in Chile is a dangeous business. A lot of fishermen have died in recent years ( some of them eaten by the squids, the fishermen say ). Their light vessels are made of fiber glass and in case of an acident they depend on the rapid response of the navy and their friends in order to survive.
