Pasigin

(Capiz) Pasigin is a fish net used by the Capiznon. In the hands of a skilled fishermen, a pasigin assures food for the family. The playful imagination of the Filipinos created the pasigin dance. Using movements of excited fishermen scooping after schools of fish, intricate footwork and dexterous swishing, swashing, scooping, and sifting gave the pasigin that chase and run character. The pasigin dance would have been an ordinary and playful dance had it not been for a comic relief where at the end, the ring-net reveals a hole big enough for the fish to escape.
