Onangi
Onangi refers to a traditional fishing technique practiced in certain coastal communities. This method typically involves the use of specialized nets or traps designed to catch fish in shallow waters, often near shorelines or in estuaries. The specific design and materials of the onangi vary depending on the local environment and the types of fish being targeted. Historically, onangi has been a sustainable practice, allowing for the harvesting of fish while minimizing disruption to marine ecosystems. Its continued use in some areas highlights its cultural significance and its role in the local economy and diet.
The practice of onangi often involves a deep understanding of tidal patterns, fish behavior, and seasonal migrations.
