GHANA FISHING

Fishermen pull in their catch into their small wooden boat a few hundred meters away from shore near Cape Coast, roughly 120km west of Ghana's capital Accra on Thursday April 9, 2009. The increasing presence of international trawlers in Ghanaian waters not only means more competition to capture a declining fish stock, but larger boats often damage the nets of small-scale fishermen by running through them as they pursue fish.
