Bubu Udang Galah (Shrimp pot/trap)
This type of pot is intended for catching freshwater
shrimp, locally called udang galah. The gear is made of bamboo
strips that is tied together to resemble a torpedo-like frame.
The gear is fitted with an entrance at the base forming a
cone-shaped non-return valve made of bamboo strips. Another
cone-shaped non-return valve is built inside the lower half
of the pot to prevent the shrimp from escaping. The entire
frame is covered with sock bag to keep the shrimp inside.
