I've always been fascinated by traditional and primitive fishing methods. Remember how people used to build those intricate bamboo traps or even just simple bottle traps? With all the modern gear we have now, it's easy to forget the ingenuity of our ancestors. For those who've actually experimented with building primitive fish traps, what types have you found to be the most consistently effective in different environments (rivers, lakes, coastal areas)? I'm thinking beyond just a basic net or spear. Have any of you had success with specific materials or bait for catching larger fish or eels with these methods? I'm trying to learn more about the practical application of these skills
