Laja-- amora nan pokot na porma nan muskitero (mosquito-net), pan-Pidjanga sanan Tilapia.
Pidjanga notes: Break anay kita sa election hu.
I've given up to temptation. I just got a whole set of lake fishing gears... one fishing pumpboat (10-15 seater with 9-caballos engine), 2 sets of laja (40ft x 40ft each), and a set of pokot (around 300 meters long). I initially planned to get a small boat (baroto) and a small pokot for "panud-an". I thought too that I can use the baroto for my occasional lake tours and photo shoots of our lake, and perhaps some pamingwit (fishing-rod). While looking around, I was overwhelmed with offers from friends and old colleagues... mostly I can not refuse, not only because they are my friends but because the offers are too low that the gears are almost given free.
I was on a dilemma too because it has been my personal advocacy to protect Lake Mainit especially addressing over-fishing and irresponsible fishing.
I hope that my decision is right. I justified to myself that the Laja (above) and the pokot do catch fish of legal sizes. Small ones just get through the holes. And I swear that this small plan turned into a "business" will be legally registered and should be operating with license.
