In Zeshuipai village, Shaoxing, East China's Zhejiang province, it used to be a tradition for villagers to net fish in a small boat. However, with the rapid process of urbanization, their village is being (or will be) removed. Also due to water pollution, fish are no more fresh and delicious. As the Zeshuipai village merges into Shaoxing city, people are not allowed to fish in this part of the river and the history of catching fish for living will end here.
