Lan, Traditional Fishing Equipment

Fishing? Do you like fishing? I like fishing very much. 

What do you know  about fishing? How important it is?

Fishing is an activity that every person like doing as a hobby when have free time and normally they do it at weekends or holiday. Fishing is the best outdoor activity. I remember when I was young I think in around 1994, I went out fishing for money to supported my own study, sometime I need to stayed in forest with my uncle or my friend to caught fish about one or two nights then comeback  with 10-15 kilograms of fishes and could earn about 6000 Riel (equal 1.50 USD) per kilogram, happy with money and wow! that was hard work for me as a 12 years old child to traveled in a long more than 30 kilometers by bike cycle, but I like it you know. What kind of equipment did I used? Okay, we used traditional fishing equipment during that time but we could caught fish.
