Fisherman on Sea of Galilee

photo

View of an Israeli fisherman on the Sea of Galilee. After scaring the fish into the net, the fisherman is in the process of drawing his net into his boat. In ancient times they used to beat the water surface with palm branches to scare the fish into the net. In modern times, fishermen have been known to use toilet plungers!
