Annual Tuchanka fishing tournament begins this month
January 28th, 2011

Fishing enthusiasts from across the galaxy as converging on the Bitter Seas Archipelago on Tuchanka this month for the annual Mannok-Vahk fishing competition. Every year dozens of krogan fisherman head to the small island chain in Tuchanka’s largest body of water to try and claim the honor of being named champion. This year, the number of contestants has swelled with the arrival of a number of non-krogan participants brave enough to weather the irradiated waters, including master anglers Tomi Oshiro of Earth and Nulia T’Raok of Illium. “Krogan are known for rage,” says last year’s champion Korwun Valug, “not our fishing skills, but I’d like to see any human or salarian land a 300-pound flathead. A krogan will take the title again this year, you’ll see.” The atmosphere of the competition is good-natured so far, but the tournament is known for breaking out into violence.
