Port Mary, Santa Ana Island

Carver demonstrating the fascinating way the villagers use a carved wooden fishing device, Santa Ana Island, Solomon Islands<br />
<br />
The rope in the carver's right hand leads to a lure that is taken by the fish. The wooden top, carved in the shape of a fish, has a stone attached by fibre at its bottom that keeps it upright. When a fish takes the lure, the fisherman can see the wooden fish moving across the water and can then retrieve the device and the fish. I searched the internet for any mention of this interesting fishing technique, or any images, and found absolutely nothing.<br />
<br />
For other photos from Santa Ana Island, including three beautiful children with the genetic mutation that leads to blond hair. see here: <a href="http://goo.gl/kWHB7t">http://goo.gl/kWHB7t</a><br />

I'll be flying around 'earning my living' for the next few days and will comment and post when and where I can.<br />
