Answers

1. Availability of many inland fishing grounds such as lakes and rivers which are accessible to many people.

2. The narrow continental shelf along the coast of East Africa limits the growth of plankton thus limiting the breeding of fish/limiting the variety of edible fish.

3. High competition in the open sea from the industrialized countries whose fishermen use modern fishing equipment discourages local fisherman who instead concentrate on fresh water fishing.

4. High demand for fresh water fish in East Africa than sea fish
