FIL: Isang istrukturang harang sa daluyan ng tubig, tulad ng ilog, upang kontrolin ang agos, patubig, o para manghuli ng isda.
EN: dam, weir, fish corral
It's like the original flood control project of the barangay. Before DPWH had mega-dams, our ancestors built a **saplad** to manage water flow and get a steady supply of fish. Think of it as a natural, low-tech dam made of bamboo and rocks.
🇵🇭 Naglagay ang mga mangingisda ng saplad sa ilog upang makahuli ng maraming isda.
🇺🇸 The fishermen placed a weir in the river to catch a lot of fish.
🇵🇭 Nasira ang saplad dahil sa malakas na agos ng tubig mula sa bundok.
🇺🇸 The dam was destroyed by the strong water current from the mountain.
