A fisherman is different from other people. Most of the people finish their work in the evening. But, a fisherman starts his work in the evening. At sunset, he goes to the sea with other fishermen.
He has to work hard in the sea to catch fish and put them in the boat. This work goes on until the morning. This is not an easy job, because he is in the deep sea. He has face dangerous sea waves, storms, and fish attacks. The fisherman returns to the shore with the fish crop the next morning. Then he sells the fish and earns some money. After a little rest, he has to repair the nets and boats for the next evening’s journey. However, his life is not a happy one. During heavy rains he can’t do his job either. He takes big risks in his life because he has to do his job in the choppy sea.
