More About This Experience

Besides fishing with nets, rods and traps, the ingenious Laotians have even devised their own version of the fishing spear, and its an amazingly powerful and precise mechanical fishing gun! Made simply with a piece of sturdy wood with industrial-strength rubber bands, you can craft your own traditional Lao fishing gun for fishing in the shallows! Every arrow is armed with 4 blades so as to be able to snag a fish easier, just like a shotgun. Try this out for yourself and have a home-made fishing gun to bring home! You will start this experience by crafting the wooden frame of the gun at the fisherman's workshop and practice your shooting. Note: Bring your own drinking water
