Fishing techniques
Bow fishing
Bow fishing is nowadays more of an outdoor sport with modern weaponry. In some of the more disadvantaged countries one still employs this fishing technique. Bow fishing is nothing but shooting prey with a bow and arrow. It seems to be a sustainable way of fishing, but be aware that the fish is not always shot into the head. Often one finds the fish in the body so the fish can have a lot of stress.
You can imagine that an active angler would lose many arrows when he missed his prey using this method. Hence at a later stage, a line was attached to allow the arrow to be retrieved along with the fish that was shot. Later this technique was highly modernized and the harpoon was launched.
Cast net
Cast nets are still being used today. Although this technique dates back to ancient times, it is mainly small local fishermen who now use it to catch fish as well as high-quality shrimp. Once the net has been cast over a spot one pulls on the bottom line and the net closes, trapping the catch inside. Contemporary cast nets have a radius which ranges from 4 to 12 feet (1.2 to 3.6 meters)
Diving
Fragile and expensive types of fish and seafood are often harvested manually. The advantage of this method is that it is highly selective and does not cause soil damage. This process is very labor intensive, however, and not without dangers. Divers are often exposed to strong currents with all their consequences. Shellfish that are collected manually excel in beauty and are of high quality.
