Chinese fishing nets at Kochi. Chinese fishing nets (Cheena vala) are a type of stationary lift net in India. They are fishing nets that are fixed land installations for fishing. While commonly known as "Chinese fishing nets". Huge mechanical contrivances hold out horizontal nets of 20 m or more across. Each structure is at least 10 m high and comprises a cantilever with an outstretched net suspended over the sea and large stones suspended from ropes as counterweights at the other end. Each installation is operated by a team of up to six fishermen. The Chinese fishing nets have become a very popular tourist attraction. Their size and elegant construction is photogenic and the slow rhythm of their operation is quite hypnotic. In addition, catches can be purchased individually and need be taken only a short distance to a street entrepreneur who will cook it. #chinesefishingnets #chinesefishingnet #keralafishing #fishingtechniques #keralatourism #kochitourists #keralaattraction #keralagodsowncountry #kerala #kochilake #vembanadulake #kochisightseeing #kochitaxi24x7 #waterworld #water #lakesideview #lakecity #fishingnet #fishing #vallarpadam #nh66 #dpworld #vypin #fishermen #netforfishing #ernakulam #kochigrams #kochigram #kochidiaries #kochilive (at Kochi Taxi) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLL745rHFnQ/?igshid=bqyhfb5kzuxl
