Harvesting Fish with Bamboo Traps by the Stream ### Materials Needed:
1. **Bamboo Poles**: Select sturdy, straight bamboo poles.
2. **Rope or Twine**: For tying and securing the traps.
3. **Knife or Saw**: To cut the bamboo.
4. **Wire Mesh or Bamboo Splints**: For the trap’s walls.
5. **Fish Bait**: Such as worms, insects, or small pieces of bread.
### Construction of Bamboo Traps:
1. **Preparation of Bamboo**: - Choose bamboo poles that are roughly 1-2 inches in diameter and around 1 meter in length. - Cut the bamboo into segments for the trap’s structure.
2. **Building the Trap Frame**: - Take a few segments of bamboo and arrange them into a rectangular or cylindrical shape, depending on your preference. - Bind the ends together using rope or twine to form a sturdy frame.
3. **Creating the Trap Walls**: - Attach wire mesh or split bamboo to the frame to create walls. Ensure the mesh has small enough openings to prevent fish from escaping. - The walls should be tightly secured to the frame to avoid any gaps.
4. **Adding the Entry Point**: - Create an entry point on one end of the trap where fish can swim in but find it difficult to exit. - This can be done by making a funnel-shaped opening or a series of overlapping bamboo strips.
5. **Placing the Trap**: - Position the trap in a stream or shallow area where fish are known to frequent. - Ensure the trap is submerged and anchored securely to prevent it from drifting.
6. **Baiting the Trap**: - Place bait inside the trap to attract fish. - Common baits include worms, insects, or small pieces of bread.
7. **Monitoring and Harvesting**: - Check the trap regularly, especially in the early morning or late evening when fish are more active. - Remove any trapped fish and reset the trap if needed. ---
