00:00I went to Rosario, Cavite to witness the drying of the Salinas fish.
00:10But it seems that the sun is gay today.
00:13Instead of the sun shining brightly on me in Dalang Pasigan,
00:18my journey is gloomy.
00:22That's why the 23-year-old star of drying, Thala,
00:27is waiting for the Salinas fish to be bought.
00:30But before Thala can dry the fish,
00:34he has to go through something with the 22-year-old Theo.
00:40How long have you been in this business?
00:43It's been a long time, more than 10 years.
00:46You're still young.
00:47How many fish do you usually catch every day?
00:50It depends. If there's a lot of fish, then there's a lot.
00:54What happens when it rains?
00:56It doesn't get wet.
00:58And when you fill up your fish tanks,
01:02who will sell the fish?
01:04They will buy the fish.
01:05When you arrive, there's always someone buying the fish.
01:10In order for the fish to be sold,
01:12it's not a market,
01:14but the price of the fish.
01:17The highest price is for the Salinas fish to go home.
01:23Who will buy the fish?
01:25Who will buy the fish?
01:27Oh, you'll buy the fish.
01:32How do you price the fish?
01:35We sell it depending on the size of the fish.
01:40What size is this?
01:42It's a medium-sized fish.
01:44Can you tell me the price?
01:46I'm sorry.
01:48Yes.
01:51Because there's a lot of fish,
01:53so only one person will buy the fish.
01:55Who will buy the fish?
01:57They will buy the fish.
02:01After filling up the fish tanks,
02:03it's time to dry the fish.
02:06So, your enemy in this business is the rain, right?
02:10Yes, the rain.
02:11But what if it rains all day?
02:13It's fast.
02:14It only rains for two days.
02:16It's already dry.
02:19If it rains for five days,
02:21trapal is the key.
02:25But it only rains for four days,
02:27so if it rains,
02:29it's better to avoid the rain
02:31so that the fish won't get wet.
02:36For each dry box,
02:37Tala sells fish for P1,500 to P3,500,
02:43depending on its size and quality.
02:46Can you see the fish with the bones?
02:49Yes, we reject that.
02:51You reject it.
02:52We reject that.
02:55The heat is on.
02:56The heat that many people avoid.
02:59It's a blessing to others.
03:00Because fishing is not just a way of life,
03:03but a tradition.
