Description:
Arabic-style dressed fishermen working on the riverbank, with Mandari Köbora women also cleaning fish with brushes at the water's edge.
Some fish can also be seen in the foreground on some matting, apparently Nile Perch.
These Arab fishermen may be trading this catch with the Mandari during the dry season, in return for beef or other goods.
