EN: a person who fishes using a 'bunsol' (fish trap)
This is your super-specialized, OG fisherman. Not the one with a fancy rod, but the one who knows the river's secrets and uses a 'bunsol'—a kind of fish trap. They're the real-life 'Finding Nemo' villain from the fish's perspective, but a hero to their family come dinner time. A very specific job title from the province.
From `man-` (doer prefix) + `bunsol` (a type of fish trap). The `n` assimilates to `m` before `b`.
A very specific and rare term, usually known only in fishing communities where this method is used.
