In Pakistan, the use of plastic fishing worms has become increasingly common among anglers, blending modern fishing techniques with traditional practices. While plastic bait offers convenience and durability, it raises environmental concerns, particularly in regions like Sindh and Punjab where fishing is integral to local livelihoods.
Pakistani culture deeply values natural resources, and many communities prefer organic bait like earthworms, aligning with eco-friendly principles. However, the shift to plastic alternatives reflects global trends, often clashing with local customs that emphasize sustainability. For instance, in rural areas, elders teach younger generations to use biodegradable materials to protect water bodies, which are vital for agriculture and daily life.
Despite this, plastic fishing worms are gaining popularity in urban centers like Karachi and Lahore, where anglers seek efficiency. To address this, some Pakistani NGOs promote awareness campaigns, encouraging a return to traditional methods to reduce plastic pollution in rivers like the Indus. |
