Assamese Fishing Instruments
Assamese fishing instruments are traditional tools used in the northeastern state of Assam, India, for catching fish in rivers, ponds, and wetlands. These instruments are often handmade from local materials like bamboo, wood, and nets, reflecting the region\“s rich cultural heritage and sustainable practices. Common examples include the \“Jakoi\“, a conical bamboo trap, and the \“Polo\“, a type of fishing spear. These tools are not only efficient for small-scale fishing but also eco-friendly, as they minimize harm to aquatic ecosystems. In recent years, they have gained attention for promoting traditional knowledge and supporting local livelihoods in rural Assam.
