Halibut Hook25.0/324

A natural fork of wood has been used in this hook to achieve the V form basic to the instrument. A fork with a strong juncture is necessary in order to withstand the tremendous stresses placed on it by the weight and power of the fish. The carving on this one-piece hook is of a long-necked sea bird. The barb lashing is of split spruce root. (Holm, Crooked Beak of Heaven, 1972)
