Fishhook

Background
It is not true that the purpose of fishhooks is to jab people in various parts of their anatomy. Sometimes they are used to catch fish. Bait is attached to the hook, a weight to the hook, the hook to the line to the fishing pole, and the fishing pole to a person's hands. Often a fishing guide is needed to tell where the fish are. Seen in that light, fishing is much more simple if you are a bear or a bird.

When people think of bait, they often think of worms. In the Other World, Worms are only one form of bait or lure. Thousands upon thousands of different tied-flies, mechanical lures, and alchemical concoctions are used the catch the mythical "Big One". In Daventry, owever, people stick to the basic for baits--worms, fish eggs, bread dough, and cheese. Those seem to work fine there.
