Traditional Fishermen Bring Fresh Fish Ashore In Patenga, Chattogram

A fisherman splashes seawater to clean freshly caught Hilsa fish arranged in a row of woven baskets suspended from a long wooden carrying pole, while a fellow fisherman looks on at Patenga Beach in Chattogram, Bangladesh, on July 21, 2026. Following high-tide landings, coastal fishermen wash and prepare their daily marine catches directly on the sandy shoreline before transporting them to nearby wholesale markets or selling them to local buyers gathered along the coast.
