Looking back at images of squid fishing from last summer. During December to May, Palawan’s seas are calm and squid travel close to shore to reproduce. Fishing follows the lunar cycle – during the dark nights of the new moon squid are attracted towards the lights of the fishermen’s small outrigger boats. They follow currents and many factors determine their location but news of where squid are congregating spreads quickly by word of mouth. Local fishermen bring their catch home to their families or sell to neighbouring buyers. Further out at sea larger industrial fishing boats beam super lights into the water and haul in tonnes of catch each night to be sent to Manila.
