Fisherman, Lake Taal

Philippines

The way to catch fish in this shallow lake is to throw a netted funnel over them once you spy them below you. This fisherman and his family do just this. After the net is over the fish, the fisherman dives into the water, slips under the net and drives the fish up to the top where he catches them by hand!
