River Cane Fish Trap

(1/5) > >>

Dalton Knapper:
Check out this fish trap I made from river cane. I'm 5' 10" tall and the trap is bigger than me by a long way. I think there are 44 staves 3 outside cane hoops (and one from jute) and two inside hoops. The funnel is tied in so fish can be removed. It was a lot of work!

killir duck:
That's awesome! Have you tried it out yet?

Peacebow_Coos:
Awesome work!

Dalton Knapper:
I haven't tried it out, but it would be for big fish. Brim would swim right through. I was wondering what native people used for bait? Maybe fish heads and guts all smashed up in a bag?

Ozzy:
That sweet  :D
