  • Description: The fishermen haul in their nets onto the shore and call to each other instructions and encoragement. Lake Victoria is called Nyanja by the Haya people. "Open the door and let me out, I want to go to the village beyond." The singing of the fishermen as they go fishing out on the lake at night is a feature of the district. Their voices can be heard for miles across the quiet waters of the lake in behind the islands which protect their bay. They used a drum, they said, to help their singing as normally they would beat the gunwale of their canoe with the paddles. Fishing song, with conical laced drum beaten with sticks and clapping.
