Halibut Hook25.0/323

Carving on halibut hooks is often simple and rough. Very likely the fisherman himself does the carving, and only if he happens incidentally to be an artist is it expertly designed and finished. The figures are meant to be seen only by the halibut, and their magical power is more important than any artistic excellence. (Holm, Crooked Beak of Heaven, 1972)
