   Primitive Jukbangnyeom Fishing

   원시어업죽방렴

   The Jijok Strait flowing between Samdong-myeon and Jijok Village in Changseon-myeon intactly preserves 26 sets of primitive Jukbangnyeom bamboo weirs. In the Jijok Strait, called 'Sondo' meaning a narrow sea path, the V-shaped Jukbangnyeom bamboo trap is a primitive fishing weir created by driving about 300 oak posts roughly 10 meters long into shallow tidal flats with swift currents, weaving them like a bamboo blind, and opening the net in the direction opposite to the current. Because the water in the Jijok Strait is clear and rapid, the seafood caught here is exceptionally clean-tasting and chewy. Watching fish being scooped up with a dip net twice a day according to the tidal flow naturally makes your mouth water for fresh wild raw fish. In particular, anchovies, fat innkeeper worms, and sea mustard are the top specialties of the Jijok Strait. MoreLess
