Fire boat spraying water at river
A traditional method of catching Japanese scaled sardines (Sardinella zunasi) was formally recognized as a cultural heritage asset in Taiwan in 2015. This year, tourists are being offered a chance to experience the annual harvest up close.\n\nSulfuric fire fishing involves the use of sulfur, a resource abundant in northern Taiwan, to produce fire from the gas produced when it comes into contact with water. Boat crews use the fire to attract the fish and corral them close to the shore. Scoop nets are used to catch the sardines, which are prized in Japanese and Taiwanese cuisine.\n\nBy 2013, only four boats were still using this traditional method. The spectacle attracted photographers and onlookers. Concerns were raised that the tradition was dying out.
