I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a grey mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking.
I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
It's a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way, where the wind's like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trip's over.

After the Fishermen called it a day their nets lie stacked at the pier. They look so beautiful and nothing shows its deadly purpose

The Chinese fishing nets (Cheena vala) of Fort Kochi (Fort Cochin) in the City of Kochi (Cochin), in the Indian State of Kerala, are fixed land installations for an unusual form of fishing — shore operated lift nets. Huge mechanical contrivances hold out horizontal nets of 20 m or more across. Each structure is at least 10 m high and comprises a cantilever with an outstretched net suspended over the sea and large stones suspended from ropes as counterweights at the other end. Each installation is operated by a team of up to six fishermen. (Source: Wikipedia)
Hello my Dear Friends, I am back from a short trip to the south of India. Thanks to my friend Raju for arranging all the photographic outings!

In the stillness of dawn, the nets lie in silence, waiting for the tide. Their delicate threads echo the quiet rhythm of nature, untouched by the world yet part of its pulse. This moment, suspended between time and tide, speaks of the peaceful endurance of a forgotten art.
Fishing nets nearby the Monument of the Afsluitdijk, 2016.
These are fishing nets of the Wieringer kotter WR 43. At many locations along site the Afsluitdijk this professional fishing boat has put his nets into the water of the IJsselmeer.
The sunlight in the garden
Hardens and grows cold,
We cannot cage the minute
Within its nets of gold.

This fisherman is preparing his mountain of nets in readiness for the lifting of the fishing ban on the 1st of September. The ban only applies to Trawler vessels using nets, not to other anglers.
This ban supposedly helps replenish the fish stock around the seas of Istanbul!
I really hope it’s true! But just look at the size of this one vessel's nets. Imagine the other thousands!

High time to provide you with some information about Greek coastal fishery:
Greece is a country with a long tradition in fishing. The 4.000 km of the mainland's coastline and the 11.000 km of the islands' coastline favour it. It's output: around 130.000-160.000 tons of fish and sea-food every year. 90% of this total is captured in the Aegean Sea. In general, the Greek waters are not very productive. Owing to the narrowness of the continental shelf in the majority of Greek waters, in general vessels fish very close to the coast. The northern Aegean, in particular the Sea of Thrace, is an exception, because of the extent of the continental shelf and the hydrographic conditions.
Fishing in Greece is characterized by the catch of multiple species - more than eighty different species. However, the predominant catches are small pelagics (anchovies and sardines). Others: cod, mullet, prawn, squid bream. And molluscs ( 9% of the landings) and crustaceans (5%.).
The Greek fishing fleet is not industrialized and dominated by small coastal vessels, as out of a total of 18 900 ships, more than 17 300 are less than 12 metres in length. More than 21% of the vessels in the European Community fleet are registered in Greece. However, because of their small size, they represent only 5% of the tonnage and 8% of the power. These characteristics also apply to the Greek fishing fleet'smain activity, which is focused on catching coastal species around the islands and some other species further beyond the continental shelf.
Only a small group of Greek fishing vessels (around 35) currently operate in international waters, catching fish and crustaceans in the central Atlantic and the western coast of Africa.
The most commonly used main fishing gear is set longlines (64% of vessels) and set (anchored) gillnets (23%). These two types of gear are the main gear of 87% of vessels in the Greek fleet. However, gillnets predominate as secondary gear (59% of vessels), while set longlines are used as secondary gear only by 26% of vessels.
