Gamze and Onur Terzi, who make their living by fishing in Rize, return together from the fish they catch every morning.
Gamze and Onur Terzi couple, who make their living by fishing in the Pazar district of Rize, go fishing every day in the first hours of the morning, amid the fierce waves of the Black Sea. The couple, who support each other while fishing, also makes a living in the house in this way.
Expressing that his life partner, Gamze Terzi, is the only partner in his business life, Onur Terzi said, “I am fishing with my wife. We get up at around six in the morning and sail into the waters of the Black Sea. We remove our nets that we lay in the water and catch 5-10 kilograms of fish and after that, we give them to our cooperative. My wife is my only partner. We also have one reserve captain, our loyal friend, our dog. We are fishing together. Our nets are torn, we sew together. We are slowly learning our business. We are trying to make nets of different fish. This is how we try to make a living.”
“My husband is my only partner”
Gamze Terzi stated that she was very happy by helping her husband and fishing together, and said, “My husband and I go fishing every morning. We drop our kids off at school and go fishing. Sometimes there is fish, sometimes not. Whatever God has given now.”
