We fish differently all over the world, but the basic truth is that we all love to fish. These prints are about sustainable fishing. This is the type of rod & reel / net fishing I grew up with having been born in a developing country. We had fishermen & women & we traversed to fish markets daily to get our fish. Either that, or the fish lady came to our house to hawk. It was awesome! Now, let's talk about how people fish all over the globe: Norway: Norway is known for its abundant & diverse marine life, which has made fishing a central part of its economy & culture for centuries.
