Most transportation on the lake is traditionally by small boats. Local fisherman are known for practicing a distinctive rowing style which involves standing at the stern on one leg and wrapping the other leg around the oar. this unique style evolved for the reason that the lake is covered by reeds and floating plants making it difficult to see above them while sitting. Standing provides the rowers with a view beyond the reeds. However, the leg rowing style is only pracited by the men. Women row in the customary style, using the oar with their hands, sitting cross legged at the stern.
