A foretaste of the atmosphere that we will have to live in during the song of fishermen on the lake

The chief of fishing, as the singer and the 'ambianceur' of the group, agrees to show us the techniques and the seasons of fishing.

English transcript of the video:

Yao: 
What kind of fish is it?

Fisherman:
Catfish.

Yao: 
What's that stick in your hand for?

Fisherman: 
It's used to find the pipes where the fish are hiding.
There are fish inside.

Not cool little brother!
You've been behind me again stealing my fish.
