A wide variety of fishing techniques

Are used to entrap fishes

Some are rather ingenious

While others are simple

- – -

The elongated basket fish trap

That’s made from vines

And coconut-fiber sen-net

Is designed

With an opening in front

To prevent fishes from escaping

- – -

Spears are used

By some traditional villagers

In Africa, Asia and South America

That dwell in huts near streams

And rivers

With translucent waters

To spear fishes

- – -

Nets are made with fiber-like material

That are set in large bodies of water

Like bays and oceans 

And raised after a specified time

With the catch

- – -

Many nets are put in place

And some are hauled

By fishing trawlers

- – -

The fishhook varies in size

Reflecting how big a fish

That a fisherman is planning

To catch

The larger the fish

The bigger the hook

- – -

In some countries

Even poison and dynamite

Are used as legitimate fishing techniques

But it all depends on the culture

In which a person is fishing

And the laws of that country
