Ocean Fence- Fish Farm

Annie Lou poses at an underwater fence used to farm fish in the ocean at the Taal Volcano (Philippines). The fence is a permanent fixture and used year round as the fishermen breed, capture, then sell the fish at the local markets. This type of breeding allows the fish to be raised in their natural environment and also causes minimal impact to the environment.

Now there's the place to go fishing! I wouldn't have to put a worm on a hook (which grosses me out), just bring a net.

It is a beautiful place out there. Taal is a wonder.
