On a recent trip to Nevis I saw some traditional fish traps, I think
they were made out of willow but it looked like bamboo to me. Most of
the fisherman now make thier traps out of chicken wire but I am after
the way of making them the "old school" way. They were woven and
formed a arrow type shape. OR even better if someone can find someone
who can make and ship one to Brighton UK I would be very very happy!!

NB please supply detailed instructions, I am not so good at the making
of stuff so I will need all the help I can get!

Howdy 1curiousgeorge-ga,

It might help researchers if they could see a picture of what you are
describing.  For instance, did it look like any of the following?

short answer no! Much more rectangular looks almost like a tetris
peice. Another way to describe it, when looking from above it has the
same outline as a stealth bomber but the nose has had a square cut out
of it. I hope this makes sense to you, if not let me know perhaps I
can mail you a drawing?

Apologies on the false start, 1curiousgeorge-ga.

If you could please look at the following document and identify by figure any
of the traps that would be similar, if any, that would be great!  Thanks!
