Tambak (Barrier net)
This fishing gear is made of synthetic netting
material that is mounted on several bamboo stakes Figure
21 and 22). Tambak are usually
set like a fence along the river banks of the inner Brunei
River. This gear differs from kabat in the intended target
species that is usually the Sergestid shrimps or bubuk
during its season. It also differs from kabat with the
use of fine meshed netting material to trap the shrimps.
The operation is done by setting a fence like structure
to filter the water during the tidal movement. The fisher
usually takes advantage of on the water current created
by the tidal change that carries the shrimp that are drifted
along with it.
