Kerala fishing net
comes in different styles and sizes From these backwaters citizens
learn to swim before they walk. Small canoes, fishing boats, Chinese
style junks and thatch covered country crafts ply the waters constantly
carrying goods, produce and people. Elaborate and strange fishing
nets, the legacy of early Chinese traders, spread out over the l
akes. There are places where the superb fisher folk dive into the
water and bring up a fish firmly captured in a bare hand. Kerala's
centuries old, palm fringed and picture perfect backwaters and mirror
still lagoons stretch over 1900 kms.
Kerala fishing nets used in backwater & even in pady fieldsKerala lives along these backwaters. They snake over the land, bestowing paddy fields with good harvests, and provide the whole village with drinking water and other facilities. The backwaters refer to the large inland lakes of Kerala. Today these backwaters act as vital waterways for the transport of goods, people and produce. They are often the only link between remote, isolated villages and crowded town pockets. It's an incredible experience to float on these soothing waters in a country craft to absorb this unusual representation of Kerala
