Korea features a maritime country of a peninsular surrounded by 3 sides of sea. therefore, sea feeds its eatables for human as main staple to live as well as hunting in land since human exists. As a result, traditional fishing methods have developed their variety, Hamjeong fishing method(Catching fish in a trap) as one of them have been carried out in Korean sea shore up to now. It is called Jeongchi fishing method(fixed shore net) using a difference of ebb and flow of the tide to catch fish in a trap.
Hamjeong fishing method has been carried out in Chungcheong, Jeolla in West and South coast of Korean Peninsular as well as Gyeongsang Province based on the reason that these areas meet their necessaries of fishing conditions. what are the conditions of necessaries of fishing conditions? A big difference of ebb and flow of the tide influences to create huge tide land, islands and saw-toothed coast line which will be considered the best condition for this fishing method.
This generation of Hamjeong fishing method is well match with Gunsan’s natural condition and we can trace its origin back to the earlier period of Gunsan. This dissertation only clarifies and investigates traditional Hamjeong fishing Method in the region of Gunsan and Gogunsan archipelago including islands in west coast of Korean Peninsular and the mouth of Geum River and Mankyeong River which are the target of my study for its history, circumstances, traces we can find and the its future.
The Hamjeong Fishing Method is characterized by two kind of environmental elements. The first is the artificial environmental change which has influenced to it. the other is that we can confirm the various different forms of Hamjeong Fishing Methd. In addition to this, we can grasp the situation of this traditional Hamjeong Fishing Method.
This investigation has main purpose to check the circumstances of Hamjeong Fishing Method in the region of Gunsan, Gogunsan, Geum River, Mankyeng River, and Okseo-Myeon.
As a result of this study, firstly, the traces of Hamjeong Fishing Method has been found out in Gaeya Island, Seonyu Island, Sinsi Island, Jangja Island, Bian Island, Doori Island, and Mal Island in Gogunsan Archipelago. Doksal(one kind of Hamjeong Fishing Method in trap) has been found out in Gaeya and Bian Islands and the others are Osal and Joomok mang Fishing Method.
Secondly, we can hardly find the traces of this fishing methods by the results of the reclaiming developments in near Gunsan, which has changed its environmental condition. However, we can find some trace of the Osal Fishing Method using of bamboo in Gum River and have consulted the literatures for the others. According to the literatures cited, there are the special sites for the Hamjeong Fishing Method in near Ganae Island, Naecho Island, and Haje region, and at the mouth of Mankyeong River for Osal Fishing Method.
We can analyze the environmental condition for each fishing method based on the data acquired from the results above. The first is that hard condition for the Doksal Fishing method allows to use the Osal Fishing Method with bamboo in tide land considered one unique fishing methods such as Poolmegi at Geum River, Ddolmegi which are the one kind of the Hamjeong Fishign Method developed in near Gunsan Area. The second is the ownership of these fishing gears generally belong to private or family members by the reason of paying taxes that had been levied by Government in the Joseon Dynasty. Therefore, fishing gears can be inherited or sold to others like a private asset.
We can say that this Hamjeong Fishing Method will be carried out in wide range of Gunsan Area including Gogunsan Archipelago at a large scale. In addition, We can clarify and find a solution for the lost Hamjeong Fishing Method for the better future of it and establish it right identification. Moreover, I can be sure of showing the better way for development of both cultural and tourism asset.
