Jukbangryeom (죽방렴)
Gyeongsangnam-do(Namhae-gun)

Jijok Strait flows between Jijok Village in the towns of Samdong-myeon and Changseon-myeon. Fishing on Jijok Strait is done by using traditional bamboo weirs called jukbangnyeom. Along the tidal flats where the water is deep and the current is fast, some 300 oak-wood beams as high as 10 meters are driven into the sea bed with bamboo screens to form V-shaped traps. The fish caught in the incoming tide get trapped in the narrow “V” end, which are then retrieved with a scoop net. The seafood products from this area are known for their exceptional quality because the surrounding waters are clean. The anchovies and seaweed caught from Jijok Strait are among the most highly sought-after in Korea. Changseondaegyo Bridge (440m) links Changseondo Island to the city of Sacheon. Following its collapse in 1992, the bridge underwent repairs and reopened in December, 1995. Fishing from this bridge will yield a catch big enough to feed the whole family. Along with Jukbangryeom, Amsubawi Rock in Gacheon Village is also regarded as one of Namhae’s valuable cultural assets.
