Ukulhas (Alif Alif Atoll) - Night Fishing

Night Fishing

Residents of Ukulhas and visitors enjoy the fun time of night fishing under the twinkling stars. For the night fishing ‘Dhoni’ leaves from the island and anchors at a neighboring reef before the sunsets and darkness falls on. When the dhoni (traditional fishing vessel with a mechanized engine) anchors, the fishing lines are set tethered with hooks and sinkers, which drop overboard from both sides of the vessel, it’s time for you to catch emperors, snappers, squirrelfish, jacks etc. It’s a tremendous, fantastic time if the fishing is good enough. If the fishing goes weak it’s an even happier to relax under the twinkling stars, on the deck of your isolated fishing vessel to listen the soft sound of waves which gently rocks against the vessel.

Famous quotes containing the words night and/or fishing:

    Of what significance the light of day, if it is not the reflection of an inward dawn?—to what purpose is the veil of night withdrawn, if the morning reveals nothing to the soul? It is merely garish and glaring.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Fly fishing may be a very pleasant amusement; but angling or float fishing I can only compare to a stick and a string, with a worm at one end and a fool at the other.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
