Joshua Ouma struggles to row his boat from Lake Victoria towards a landing site at Sori Bay.
His colleague Kennedy Oketch joins him and they make a number of manoeuvres to guide their rickety vessel to the shores.
Their mission is made more difficult by a stubborn weed now derailing fishing activities at the Nam Rongo landing site at Sori Bay.
The new weed has invaded the shores at a time when the fisher folks are already struggling with water hyacinth.
