The coastal town of Negombo bustles with fish and fisheries like no other town in Sri Lanka. Prawn fishing in the lagoons, boats going in and out of the estuaries and canals, outrigger canoes and sailing boats at sea, dry fish spread out under the sun, nets being dried on the beaches, noisy bargaining as the catch is sold, anglers casting along the canals, crows flapping around grabbing bits of fish …. The sights, the sounds, the smells. All of fish.
