Answer: here's your answer

A fisherman is an individual whose work is to catch fish in the ponds, canals and even in rivers and sell then in the local markets. His main profession is to earn his living by catching and selling fish. He even ventures to the sea in groups by trawlers for the reason. He has to lead a hardscrabble life as his daily income is very meagre. The fishermen form a community by themselves. Some fishermen live on the seashore and catch fish in the sea, while others live near the rivers at the high time of rainy season. Again some return to village for repairing fishing nets and boats. A fisherman does not know many things happening around him. He keeps himself busy in fishing lines. He does not care the other side of life. He is free from the peaks and troughs of urban life. His joy knows no bounds when he catches a lot of fish. But a fisherman has to face many challenges including maritime disasters. He has to maintain weather warnings. Sometimes, his life is faced with instant death in the grip of inclement weather when the sea becomes rough. The government should provide fishermen with some certain benefits including easy and relaxed term loans.

Back from the sea: Hauling in the boat.

Cresting the waves at the crack of dawn to get the best catch, that's what the life of a fisherman is all about.

Even before the sun rises and warms the sea, there are men at work, braving the elements. The fishermen — depending on whether the type of catch they want — set out in the middle of the night or very early in the morning. To catch fish with metal hooks suspended by nylon threads is what takes the longest, and this sees them travelling deep into the sea. But to get a catch using their nets they don't have to travel far. A ride in their motorised boats before sunrise will do. But there are also times when they go deep sea fishing in large boats stocked with food and water to help them survive 10 days at sea.

Once they are back in the morning, the boat is hauled to shore by the fishermen, who venture out in groups of four, sharing the burden, cost, profits and losses alike. There are days when they are blessed with plenty, but on other days they return empty-handed, with a loss of about Rs. 400 that they spend on diesel to fuel the motors.

The catch is removed from the nets and sorted according to the type — crabs, Red Snapper, Blue Fish, Butter Fish, Cat Fish, Mullet, Smelt, Salmon and more. The fishermen need to invest in 10 different types of nets depending on what they plan to catch, with the most expensive net costing around Rs.1 lakh, and each weighing between five kilos and 400 kilos.

Once sorted, the fishermen's wives sell the fish in the market. Fishermen also sell to vendors depending on the best price offered and the vendors in turn sell them at the market.

In the evenings, the fishermen are free to relax, watch TV, spend time with family and catch up on gossip over mending nets and preparing for the next day.

While it is a profession filled with uncertainty, also uncertain is the future of this profession. Many fishermen send their children to school and want them to hold other jobs in fields like software and teaching. They say that they do not want their children to struggle as they do and want a better life for them, leaving the future of this sea-dependent occupation in question.
