Fishing

 

I own a twelve foot fishing boat powered by a 4 HP inboard engine and having a Susuki 5HP Outboard motor as an auxiliary. I keep the boat at Ghar Lapsi which is a small bay about three miles away from Siggiewi, the village where I live. My preferred season is obviously Summer when the calm seas which prevail on the island allows me to enjoy this hobby more frequently. I fish mostly for "Tumbrell" and we use flies to fish for this type of fish. We also use flies to fish for the most popular fish on the island, the "Lampuka". This can be caught as from the middle of August right up to early November and if the weather permits it can also be sometimes caught during the month of December. The "Tumbrell" can be caught right through the year but there are periods easpecially early in summer when this type of fish seems to diasppear. The picture below is Ghar Lapsi the small bay where I keep my boat.

Photography

 

I started this hobby when still at school. My first camera was a gift from my parents on the occasion of my 12th birthday. Experimented with quite a few different cameras till I bought a Yashica way back in the early seventies. Used to take photographs during christening parties, engagement parties and also took the photos during a couple of weddings. Now I only take pictures as a hobby and my present cameras are a Cosina CT7 and a Petri GX4. The bodies of these two models are exactly the same and therefore the lenses are interchabgeable.
