日本

有1,300 年歷史的鸕鶿捕魚

岐阜市距離日本名古屋只有20分鐘的鐵路(JR)路程,卻是一個很不一樣的城市,15分鐘就可以到傳統老街,欣賞傳統文化。

鸕鶿捕魚就是利用野生鸕鶿在河中捕捉香魚的傳統捕魚方法,在岐阜已經有1,300 年的歷史,被指定為日本無形民俗文化財產。

每年的捕魚季節是5月中隻至10月中。現在只有6個傳統漁民家族可以這樣捕魚,他們會穿上傳統衣服、撐著不用一根釘子的木製捕魚船,在捕魚期間每天帶著鸕鶿在河中捕魚。要欣賞這個傳統要在傍晚時間到長良川乘坐觀光船,到指定位置看。很精彩呢!

There are different boat types and schedules that you may get on: 18:15, 18:45 or 19:15. It’s the matter of time you want to spend on the river and whether or not you want to have enough time for dinner before the fishing begins.
每天有3個乘船班次和不同載客量的船,18:15、18:45或19:15, 有些時間比較長,可以在船上吃晚餐,然後再欣賞捕魚。

This is where all the boats are moored and wait for the fishing to begin at around 19:45. It’s relaxing and refreshing to enjoy a wonderful sunset by the river.
所有觀光船都停在這裡等候捕魚。捕魚時間約 19:45開始。在平靜的河邊欣賞日落美景很寫意。

The fishing begins! 6 fishing boats with fire torches sail out to the river. The masters wearing traditional clothes would leash 10 cormorants in one hand, let them go fishing and take the fish from them once they catch the fish.
捕魚開始!燃亮木火把的漁船慢慢經過,穿著傳統衣服的船主一手抓住10條綁住鸕鶿的繩,等牠們在河中「捕」魚後,便牠們抓回來,從口中把香魚拿出,然後把牠們放回水中繼續捕魚。

The fish is called Sweet Fish. This is a common fish that you may get in other places in Japan. However, while you are in Gifu at the right time, enjoy the catch. While ordering a meal on board is not a must. If you like that, please order in advanced. It’s nice. I really like the cute little jello!
鸕鶿捕的是香魚。在日本其地方都可以吃到,通常都是鹽燒的。來到崎阜長良川,當然可以吃到最新鮮的香魚啦!餐盒要預訂,十分精美,最可愛是那個小魚造型的啫喱。

The finale is the row of 6 boats sailing together. This is just not for the show, it’s for cornering the fish with all 6 boats!
鸕鶿捕魚最精彩是最後6條船會一起出來。當然6炬火把在河上飄過很精彩,但重點是6條船一起是為了合力把魚圍起來,希望可以捕捉更多魚。
