Fiji, A Fijian fish driveA large group of men holding long sticks stand in a circle, up to their necks in water, as they struggle to contain a net full of fish during a fish drive. In drives such as this, the net is laid on the seabed in shallow water and retracted as soon as a shoal of fish swims across it. Caption reads: Many hundreds of multi-coloured fish are caught in this fish drive, 1965. 2005/010/1/14/19.
