I’ve never really been a fan of fishing, probably because on the few occasions I’ve ever been I’ve never caught anything – but clearly I have been trying in all the wrong places. After an overnight stopover in Honiara it’s just a one hour plane hop to Munda, on the island of New Georgia, and I’m about to learn something about fishing from experts. Fishing is a way of life in the Solomon Islands – there’s a plentiful supply and it’s a staple of the local diet but when a big catch is required – for a large family or community gathering – they have a unique way to ensure a big catch.
