Gioacchino Cataldo e Clemente Ventrone are among the most famous tonnaroti of Egadi. The first (died recently) was historian Rais, the head of the crew; The other his deputy. The Rais is tall, imposing, speaking like a northerner. The other one has a thick blond hair. They're seventy, but they don't show it. They are still at the port, their gaze is towards the opposite island of Levanzo, where once the nets of tuna were lowered to make "slaughter" of tuna. The two tonnarots seek their prey, which almost for mockery are seen while crossing the "Strait" between the two islands. "Today we can see them jump and just-said the Rais Cataldo-, almost laugh at us and the tradition of the slaughter that Favignana has always stopped". :-( Gioacchino Cataldo e Clemente Ventrone sono stati tra i più famosi tonnaroti delle Egadi. Il primo ( morto di recente) è stato storico rais, il capo della ciurma; l'altro il suo vice. Il rais era alto, imponente, parlava come un settentrionale.
L'altro ha una folta chioma bionda. Sono settantenni, ma non lo dimostrano. Sono fermi al porto, il loro sguardo è verso la dirimpettaia isola di Levanzo, laddove una volta si calavano le reti della tonnara per fare “mattanza” di tonni. I due tonnaroti cercano le loro prede, che quasi per beffa si fanno vedere mentre attraversano lo “stretto” tra le due isole. “Oggi li possiamo vedere saltare e basta – diceva il rais Cataldo –, quasi ridono di noi e della tradizione della mattanza che a Favignana si è per sempre fermata”.  |

Thanks Buonaluce, I'm glad and honored to have crossed him at the port, who rented me home told me "no offense and excuse the message hard, but now our tuna you are unfortunately become you."
Hello, Fabio Grazie Buonaluce, sono contento ed onorato di averlo incrociato al porto, chi mi ha affittato casa mi ha detto "senza offesa e scusa del messaggio duro, ma ora i nostri tonni siete purtroppo diventati voi".
Ciao, Fabio |

Incredible This gentleman in the foreground, on the occasion of my first voyage to Sicily in Favignana in 1970, was already a charismatic figure in the port and during the slaughter. He saved my life and the raft during a sudden gale that only they knew would arrive. Glad to see him (also a little changed like me)
Nice shot and for me a good memory. Thank you :-o
Hello
Raff Incredibile; questo signore in primo piano, in occasione del mio primo viaggio in Sicilia a Favignana nel 1970, era già una figura carismatica nel porto e durante la mattanza. Mi ha salvato la vita ed il gommone durante una improvvisa burrasca che solo loro sapevano sarebbe arrivata. Contento di rivederlo (anche lui un pò cambiato come me)
Bello scatto e per me un buon ricordo. Grazie 
Ciao

A long time ago, I and a large group of amateur photographers we set off for the turn of Favignana convinced to make the big shot with the traps as seen in the photos in B/N, now heritage only in historical archives.
arrived on the spot, we showed our intentions to the local fishermen but they laughed at us, told us that the only tuna we could photograph were those in the supermarket box.
Disappointed, we did not lose heart and we ended the day at bar to drain a couple of beers :-P
tempo fa, io e un nutrito gruppo di fotoamatori partimmo allo sbaraglio per la volta di Favignana convinti di fare il colpo grosso con le tonnare come si vedeva nelle foto in b/n, oramai patrimonio solo negli archivi storici.
giunti sul posto, manifestammo le nostre intenzioni ai pescatori del posto ma questi ci risero in faccia, ci dissero che gli unici tonni che potevamo fotografare erano quelli in scatola del supermercato.
delusi, non ci perdemmo d'animo e finimmo la giornata al bar a scolarci un paio di birre
