Serrekunda is to get a new fish market, while the markets in Bintang, Tendala and Albreda are to be rejuvenated.
The Gambia Artisanal Fisheries Development Project will also extend the Banjul Fisheries Jetty and related facilities at Bund Road, Banjul, reports Forayaa newspaper.
There are fabulous fishing opportunities for both enthusiasts and casual anglers in the Gambia with boat, beach and freshwater fishing on offer.
John Wilson, voted the 'Greatest Angler of All Time' in a 2004 survey, told gambia.co.uk: "My personal love affair with the Gambia started back in the early 1990s whilst researching locations for my 'Go Fishing' series for ITV. Due mainly to the wide range of salt and freshwater options available, I've been hooked ever since."
Just six hours by plane from London, the Gambia is a fantastic destination for a winter getaway of any type, with stunning beaches, fine dining and a range of sporting and leisure pursuits.
