species of Tilapia and several species of Catfish, and many others. Don't miss a

Fishing
"Lord of the Fish", thus an ancient hymn describes the Nile. Apart from the great
bounty which the annual inundation of the Nile bestowed on the land, the Nile also
supplied Egypt, as it till does, with plentiful fish and water-fowl.
A wooden-model from the tomb of high official "Meket-Ra" some 4000 years ago,
shows that, the ancient Egyptians had discovered the advantages of trawling in the
form of a large net slung between two skiffs (or little papyrus boats), each manned by
a crew of six. For fishing, they used nets, harpoons, lines and tridents. Today, as
before in the days of the Pharaohs, fish still provide a cheap and plentiful source of
protein, (but today fishing didn't stop at the Nile or surrounding lakes it did extended
to the open seas on the east and north), largely as a result of government efforts to
stock the inland waters and help sea-going fishermen acquire modern trawlers, and
up-to-date vessels.
Despite the building of the Aswan High Dam which limits the flow of fresh water into
the Mediterranean, making it less able to sustain aquatic life, the Nile still have some
190 varieties of fish. Main fishing centers in Egypt, apart from the Nile, Lakes
including the northern lakes, are Alexandria, Port Said, Suez, Damietta and Rasheed.
