This rich and jaded paradise is famous for its stilt fishermen, sitting on small platforms mounted on poles along the coast. But the only thing of value they catch are the tourists. Senna, unemployed and unassuming, fishes off the edge of the protected marine reef. It's half work, half recreation, and Senna is highly skilled at fly-fishing. Using a Pithia branch as the rod and weed plucked from the reef, the Paramuva (silver mullet) bite timidly, but once hooked it's a fight; without regard to the razor sharp coral and crashing waves. If this hasn't got your endorphins flowing the quickly bled and boiled fish mixed with backyard curry leaves will sort you out.
