Gerber has no parallels, but Jones has "Buh Rabbit, Buh Fox, and de Fisherman," which starts with a fish-trap, but then becomes AT0001. Baer concludes: "I have found nothing resembling this tale."

MY NOTES
This might be a good story to make my case for functional analysis because even if there is not an obvious type or motif classification, it's clear that the plot functions in this story are completely typical of a Brer Rabbit trick.
