Explain three problems experienced by fishermen in Lake Victoria

Answer Text:
1. Indiscriminate fishing leading to catching even immature fish.
2. Boundary conflict over L. Victoria especially with Uganda e.g. recently over Migingo
3. Water hyacinth in L. Victoria.
4. Lack of capital leading to lack of modern fishing equipment which restricts the catch per day.
5. In L. Victoria Nile perch preys on the other fish such as tilapia lowering their stock
