Tanggok (Scoop net) This gear is made of fine mesh netting mounted on
a C-shaped bamboo frame with a handle in the middle (Figure
26). This gear is being used by the Batu Marang fishermen
while onboard a boat for catching Acetes spp. or sergestid
shrimps along mangrove fringes. The species locally called
“bubuk”, is popular for preparing belacan or
shrimp paste. The gear is operated along a fence like structure
or barrier called the sawar (Figure 27)
that usually blocks the path of the shrimps as they are
carried by the water current due to tidal change.
