Catching Methods and Technical Key Points for River Eels
There are several methods for catching river eels in rice paddies. Before catching the eels, the water level in the paddy field can be lowered in advance to artificially create oxygen deficiency, and then new water can suddenly be added. When the river eels gather at the water inlet swimming against the current, they can be surrounded and caught with a net. Another method is to stop feeding for one day before catching; when catching, use fresh feed to lure the eels to gather at the feeding site, then set the net to surround and catch them. Finally, the pond can be drained to catch them all thoroughly, and after temporary rearing by size specification, they are ready for sale.
