La pesca del pesce spada nello stretto di Messina. La pesca del pesce spada ha origini molto antiche, infatti si praticava già nel II secolo a.C.. In origine, non veniva usata alcuna imbarcazione: Polibio ha descritto nelle sue opere questa tradizione, facendo trapelare al lettore lo stupore che lui stesso ha provato guardando per la prima volta un pescatore calabrese, appostarsi sugli scogli ed aspettare con l'arpione il pesce spada. Polibio descrive anche altre tradizioni ed usi come l'utilizzo di torrette e passerelle. Questi usi, tramandati di generazione in generazione, hanno fatto sì che da più di duemila anni la tecnica originaria di pesca nello Stretto di Messina sia rimasta pressoché immutata: avvistare il pesce, inseguirlo o attenderlo, lanciargli un arpione e lottare con lui. Negli ultimi secoli (probabilmente dal Quattrocento) venne introdotta un tipo di imbarcazione di origine araba, chiamata Feluca. La feluca è una barca piccola, lunga dai 5 ai 7 metri, senza chiglia, alla quale veniva richiesta la massima stabilità, con un equipaggio di cinque rematori e un arpioniere. Questi cambiavano a volte disposizione, ad eccezione del quinto uomo che saliva sull'albero maestro per avvistare la preda. Dal 1952 in poi, a causa dello scarso rendimento di questa attività vennero introdotte alcune modifiche come l'introduzione della passerella e del primo motore, queste portarono ad un aumento del ricavo. Gli esemplari moderni (chiamati sempre "Feluche"), sono costituiti da un'alta torre per l'avvistamento ed una passerella per l'arpionaggio; queste due parti sono molto importanti perché, collegate direttamente da funi e tiranti, garantiscono stabilità all'imbarcazione. La barca è dotata anche di due motori per affrontare le correnti dello Stretto. La torre innalzata al centro della barca ha in cima una coffa, dentro alla quale prende posto l'ultimo componente dell'equipaggio, forse il più importante, dato che dà comunicazioni riguardo alla navigazione e alla presenza o meno del pesce. ------Tutte le foto contenute in queste gallerie sono copyright Sergio Bartolomeo e non possono essere utilizzate in alcuna forma senza il consenso dell'autore.

Yes, skilled and strong anglers who continue to make traditional fishing, when in other parts of the world, the same fish, you fish with much more profitable techniques.
Thank you so much for your beautiful words.
Hello
Good night.

This takes up the "focus" of the previous one but the surface of the sea is gleaming with gold and this alone, captures and focuses with liking the visitor's gaze, but then there is also the rest, caption including... :-) :
congratulations Sergio.
A warm greeting, Claudio :-P

I waited a little longer for the boat to arrive in the wake of the sun, still low in the sky, which made the surface of the water shine, coloring it with its warm colors.
Very pleased with your appreciation to these two shots and caption, a tribute to a traditional fishing on the Strait of Messina.
Thank you so much for your compliments and nice commentary words.
