The Cellar - View Single Post - June 18, 2007: Ukai, traditional Japanese comorant fishing

i wonder what they have the burning basket for?

- light for the fish to see them, being curious and come to the surface
- to stress the cormorant
- to keep warm
- for a simple and quick BBQ after pulling out the fish of the birds throat

other theories...?
