Every morning, with the sun, the fishing fleets arrive at several ports in the Cam Ranh Bay area of Vietnam. As they arrive activity increases to a frenetic pace. The boats are unloaded, resupplied and head back out to the South China Sea, some of the best fishing grounds anywhere in the world.

Just as soon as the boats dock and unload their catch is bought by the wholesalers. These fishmongers, after much haggling, sell the fish to retailers, restaurants, etc.

And by mid-morning, the activity winds down until the sun brings the fleet back in tomorrow.
