Story of Fishermen-A photostory

While I went for a road trip to Tajpur, a small village in the coast of Bay of Bengal which is just few kilometers before the very well known tourist spot Digha. There, I saw the fishermen fishing during the evening hours. The first day I carefully observed them. Their techniques, methods, and their hard work. The next day I decided to photograph these fishermen to capture how they do this much of hard work for just few penny of money by which they run their houses. Most of the people here are into fishing or rearing of fishes what we call pisciculture. They sell them in the local market to earn their daily bread and butter. 
Since we rode to Tajpur, we had our bikes. I also went to the Udaipur beach just next to Digha sea beach. There I found the fishermen has just started their process of fishing. I went closer, nearer to photograph them and made some images. Here is a short series of photograph about those fishermen.
The photographs here are from both Tajpur beach & Udaipur beach. 

Fishermen trying out their luck. Their first throw of net

These large fishing nets require minimum of 7-8 men to control it. As it becomes too heavy and it needs to be pulled slowly so that fishes near the shore gets trapped in it

A slow-shutter drama

The fishermen preparing their fishing nets at Udaipur beach

After 10-15mins they start pulling out the net from the water to check what they have got. If not satisfied they will again throw the net

While their fathers go out for their daily fishing, their mother takes care of them.  I saw these two little girl in a small shop near the beach which is run by their mother. 

Final round of sorting 

The locals come to buy fish. Even some of the tourist buy the fishes and take it to their hotel and resort to cook them and have it in the dinner.

The final output

This was the story of the hardworking class of our society. They earn very little when compared to their input. But still they are happy.
