Just thought a few of you might find this interesting. One of the family is called Sai Chun, he is from Issan originally, which is in the North East of Thailand. They are from Laos originally, and are one of the poorest in Tailand, mainly farmers, and they will eat anything, including bats, birds, snakes, rats, dogs the list is endless.

It as just come to the end of the rainy season, and there are quite a few waterholes around the village, these will eventually dry up till next year, but they all have fish in them that have been trapped as the water resides.

Si Chun straps a car battery to his back, and as two metal prongs with wooden handles and a switch on, connected to the battery. He then goes into the pools and send a small electric current into the water, stunning the fish.

Here’s a couple of pics of Si Chun fishing and some pics of the fish he caught. Not sure what the fish are so anybody out there can tell me it would be much appriciated.

I’m Jeff from UK originally, but have been in Thailand for a few years now. Just thought a few of you might like this story. Before I met my wife I was living in another village with another Thai family. My girlfriend had 2 children, 1 girl and a boy called Nuke. It was during the dry season, and nuke came home one day with a couple of fish, we thought he had caught them in the local small lake, but he said he hadn’t. He said he had noticed a cat come out of a hole in a field with a fish. The hole ran underneath the road and was a water outlet for when the fields flooded.

He’d climbed into the hole and he said it was full of fish, there was hardly any water in there but the fish where living in the mud. The pics tell the story….enjoy.

1. Nuke prepares to go down the hole.

2. Nuke checks for snakes

3. Watched and encouraged by his mum, grandpapa and young cousin

4. Almost There

6. Gone

7. Nuke coming back out

8. Cor ! I’m glad that is over

Nuke went down that hole several times and this is what he retrived.

This woman turned up as we where cleaning the fish, she owned the land that the hole was on and accused us of pinching her fish…LOL.
