Muddy job but fun especially when you get those fishes into the trap! That also means, food on the table for dinner! 😋😍🍽🐟 📄 - Every year after the harvesting month which usually ends after the month of January, the rice paddy fields all over Ba'Kelalan will be cleared and this is the time when fishes will be abundance in presence!
