A fisherman poses near some boats at Kasongole village

1976

Because of the density of its fisheries, Lake Mweru Wantipa was the source of a fairly lucrative fishing industry. Kasongole was the largest fishing camp on the lake, evolving within a few years to be one of the larger villages in the district. In the background, groups of men relax in the shade of simple gazebos (nsaka). 6840-03 Nsemiwe, Nsumbu Nov '76 Kaputa, Kasongole - November 1976
