In the coastal regions of Pakistan, particularly in Sindh and Balochistan, fishing gaffs play a vital role in traditional fishing practices. These tools are essential for landing large fish species found in the Arabian Sea.
Local fishermen craft gaffs using indigenous materials like bamboo handles and forged iron hooks. The design varies between regions - Makran coast gaffs feature longer handles for deep-water fishing, while Karachi fishermen prefer shorter versions for maneuverability.
Traditional gaff-making represents intergenerational knowledge transfer, with elders teaching proper hook sharpening techniques and safe handling methods to younger generations. |
