Here is why a plate of fish costs so much in places it’s found

Each day, between 150 and 180 traditional fishing boats leave Lwanda Kotieno beach in Siaya County to chase the latest shoal of Nile perch, Tilapia or dagaa in the expansive Lake Victoria.

Area Beach Management Unit (BMU) chairman Dickens Odhiambo says the fleets leave at three different times, depending on the type of fish they intend to catch.
