Tuliasi
Tuliasi is a Polynesian word often used in Samoan culture. It generally refers to a type of fishing net or seine net used to catch fish, particularly in shallow waters. The term can also extend to the act of fishing with such a net. The construction of a tuliasi typically involves weaving netting from natural fibers, often coconut fiber, and attaching weights to the bottom edge to ensure it sinks and a flotation device to the top to keep it near the surface.
The use of the tuliasi is a traditional method of fishing that has been practiced for generations
