傳、傳 - 織網打魚楊門圈 Legend: Men-chuan Yang, Fishing and Net Weaving

Men-Chuan Yang, a fisherman with over half a century of fishing experience, sees the ocean in front of his home as if it were his parents, helping him shoulder the heavy responsibility of being the head of the family. Unlike most Hakka people who have memories of farming, his ancestors had already turned to the ocean for development. Even though his father once laughed at him for being clumsy and slowing down progress, Men-Chuan Yang still maintained diligent practice. He collected broken nets and learned his father＇s hand-woven fishing net technique. Although the nylon fishing line and netting machines from Japan have already replaced hand-woven fishing nets. But he still strives to pass on the skill of hand-woven netting to his grandson, because repairing fishing nets still relies on manual labor. The holes in the net need to be repaired by hand, and the holes in forgetting need to be avoided by generational inheritance. Men-Chuan Yang watches his grandson weave fishing nets, hoping he will remember the admonition "people must not forget their roots."
