More than a hundred fishermen make their living from the lake. Its mineral-rich waters are highly productive, and there are nets everywhere. The next morning, Geng returns with his son to collect his catch. At first sight, it looks disappointing. Tiny fishes, lots of shrimps, and some wriggling bugs. Geng doesn't seem too downhearted. The larger fish are kept alive, the only way they'll stay fresh in the heat. Surprisingly, some of the bugs are also singled out for special treatment. They're the young stage of dragonflies, predators that feed on worms and tadpoles. Nowhere else in the world are dragonfly nymphs harvested like this. |
