Boats rigged for night fishing, Pasar Akan Harbour, Jakarta, Indonesia


Near the Pasar Ikan fish market at Muara Angke port, not far from the old Sunda Kelapa Harbour in Jakarta, Indonesia, there is a fleet of fishing boat with lines of lights rigged on their superstructure. These are the boats that go out fishing at night. The lights attract squid, shrimp and krill to the boat, which in turn attract larger fish.
