Quotations

1964
The Indian method of fishing for lingcod was ingenious. A lure called a "hee-hee," of wood and fibres in the shape of a shuttle-cock, was pushed down toward the reef with a long three-tined spear. When the spear was sharply withdrawn, the "hee-hee" spun slowly to the surface followed by the curious or hungry lingcod.
