Seining the duck pond for Tilapia
Several people spread out around the net. Those on the edges are to pull the net across the pond and everyone else is to keep the led line down into the muck at the bottom of the pond so that we catch the ultimate number of fish.



It is a lot of effort to pull the net across the pond as well as to keep the lead line down. We seined two ponds and it took us from 10am till 3 or 4pm with a lunch break and then we fillet all the fish we caught.

I loved this. It reminded me of all the stories in the Bible of Peter out fishing and the letting out of the net. And of how it is only effective when done as He commands! "We have fished all night and caught nothing...nevertheless at Your Word we will let down the net" (Luke 5:5)
