Japan Old B/W Postcard AYU FISHING with Cormorants GIFU

Vintage B/W Japanese picture post card, Ayu-Fishing with Cormorants Birds, Nagara-gawa, GIFU. Fishermen. Mountains. 岐阜長良川之弟鳥飼.

Series No: 4
Background: AYU fishing. Japanese fish called "AYU" eat waterweed on pebbles or rocks on the water bed. Each fish tries to keep a teritory of around 5 to 10 feet in diameter. When another AYU comes into his teritory, he fights with the newcomer to drive him away. He attacks on his belly bottom. What happens if a hook is hanging underneath this newcomer's belly? There is a good chance that this poor fish is hooked! You use an AYU fish at the end of your line to catch another AYU. But, the AYU at the end of the line is not a bait. He is an invader. A fish brings another fish! The name of this game is AYU fishing.
