    Maori for eel pots
    <HINAKI.JPG">
    Hinaki or eel pots are made of finely woven plant stems such as from Muehlenbeckia. They can be used attached to a net as part of a weir where they catch eels migrating down the river to the ocean to give birth, or in open waters using bait. They were placed in rivers in such a way that eels entered the larger opening with the flow of the current. Sometimes eels were kept alive in hinaki until they were needed as food.
