Stonefish traps serve a dual purpose: they provide a sustainable method of fishing and reflect the ingenuity of traditional Polynesian fishing practices. As the tide rises, fish are naturally funneled into the trap's chambers and channels. Once inside, fish become disoriented and unable to escape as the tide recedes, allowing fishermen to harvest them easily. This method of fishing is highly efficient and minimizes environmental impact compared to modern fishing techniques. Beyond their practical function, stone fish traps hold cultural significance in French Polynesian communities. They are a testament to the resourcefulness and intimate knowledge of the marine environment possessed by indigenous islanders.
