Build & Trap | Primitive Bamboo Fish Trap | Cedar Bark Cordage

In a long term survival situation or extended wilderness living, any passive food gathering methods can be vitally important. Primitive fish traps are a lot of work up front but, in the right situation, they can pay for themselves many times over. There are many ways to make fish traps and this one is inspired from some of the Asian cultures who have access to large tracts of bamboo. Bamboo is a fantastic building material for primitive traps but if you don't have access to it, you could easily substitute young shoots of many different species. It took a whole day to build the bamboo fish trap before baiting it with a few worms and setting it in a pond. I hit go on the gopro and got a little underwater footage of the trap in action.
