Well, I'd better dust off my camera and get down to the local fish weir to take some pics! I've not been able to track down any images showing the weirs that are dry at low tide (like the one near where I live).
In the meantime, here 's a photo of weir at Grand Manan. This kind of weir is 'fished' from a boat as mentioned in my previous posting.
Also, here's a neat animation of fish swimming into a weir and then around in a figure eight pattern waiting to be caught!

And this is a site that features weir photos by Jorgen Klausen. He's taken some absolutely stunning photos of weirs. Take a look!
