Waree's dad has several thousand catfish in this pond by the river on the
farm.

He was having problems catching them, using a drop net thrown out
with weights on the perimeter. So he borrowed Rats tractor a single
cylinder very slow revving diesel with two wheels which is the work horse of
all farms in the region.

He set this up as a pump to transfer the water from the nong (lake or pond) where he has the fish into the adjacent one.

When the water level had been lowered Waree's dad, her brother Joi and the
neighbour across the road Juan fished to get about 20 kg of fish ordered for
a funeral party in the village.

Unfortunately the water kept seeping back
from the adjacent nong and the river so the level soon rose again.
