A large vacuum hose used to transfer fish from the boat's net hangs down from a deck on a Turkish commercial "girgir" seine net fishing vessel. Seine vessels capture fish by surrounding them with a metres-long net and using a motorized reel to close up the net's bottom, which ensures the fish are gathered at a single point. Workers extend the hose into the net to vacuum the fish into the boat. Trabzon, Trabzon Province, Black Sea Region, Turkiye, 2023. Havva Zorlu / We Animals
