Men arrive to join residents of communities around the Katse Dam, as they wait for local fisheries to deliver fish heads for their consumption, on October 10, 2022.

In the distance, trout breeders have been hard at work for a few hours already: it's harvest day. Lesotho, with its abundant rivers, has become in less than 20 years one of the region's leading producers of freshwater fish, with delicate and sought-after flesh.
