At some landing sites, which are usually a beehive of activity, there is no business going on.
Sector players are blaming the situation on the ongoing mass death of fish, particularly the Nile Perch, which has left the lake with no stock. This has also pushed the fish prices high.
Currently, a kilogramme of Nile Perch sells between Shs14,000 and Shs16,000 at various fish markets in most urban centres, up from Shs12,000 a month ago, while Tilapia costs Shs12,000 compared to Shs7,000 a month ago .
