Description:
A group of men on their way to catch fish in the low lands, with local fishing tools known as polo. In the dry seasons from January to February villagers catch fish in the low laying lands such as marshlands and canals, with local fishing tools like polo and chai. The fish drifts along with flood waters from rivers during monsoon. As the waters recede in the dry seasons the fish remain trapped and villagers in festive spirit begin fishing in the low lands, abundant with fish. Tala in Satkhira, Bangladesh. January 2, 2009.
