C u r r i m a o


The mid-day catch is about to come in here in the fishing town
of Currimao, Ilocos Norte.





Older fisherfolk know what they're doing,
while the younger... learn the ropes.






Some tourists grab the photo opportunity;





while others grab the experience itself!






The vendors arrive with hopes as high as the sun.




Honestly, my fingers were crossed for a spectacular catch---
like a whale or a giant squid!




But nothing like that today...



Just a few sacks of uber fresh catch...



Talakitok at Php250/kilo----



not bad at all.


Best of all, tourists who help bring in the catch...
get to take home what jumps in their bags.
