Fishing Gears of the Cambodian Mekong
This catalogue describes more than 150 types of fishing gear used in the Cambodian part of the Mekong River Basin. Types are divided into 16 main categories ranging from hand-capture, scoop and wounding devices to traps and nets. These are divided into 44 secondary categories and 94 tertiary groups. Some 400 names for the different types of gear are given in Khmer (in both Khmer and Latin scripts) and English. Technical descriptions and mentions of target species are accompanied by detailed line drawings and photographs. Charts illustrate the seasons when each type of gear is used in four regions – the Tonle Sap Lake, the Tonle Sap River, the floodplains of the Mekong and Bassac rivers south and east of Phnom Penh, and the upper Mekong in northern Cambodia. Costs are given in local currency based on prices between 1998 and 2000. Gender and legal aspects are also taken into account.
