Somali Pirates Not All Bad

“This year the amount of fish we have caught has been very good. We get about 150 kilograms to 200 and even 300 kilograms, depending on how much we fish. There were fish that had disappeared and have come back like the barracuda, oranda, red snapper and other types. We are very happy now that there are so many fish.”
