Thematic categories of named fishing sites (toponyms) in the study area. Literal meanings were categorized by the authors into three main themes and 13 sub-categories. For each of them, the number of fishing sites and the corresponding number of visiting fishers (percent of all fishers surveyed within brackets) are indicated. The dataset of the fishing toponyms and their meaning is available at https://doi.org/10.23708/G7IH98.
