As an Irishman. I'm happy to see a video like this. I grew up on fish alot. Traditional ways of fishing like spearing with a fork or leaving a baited line overnight or just waiting were and are still common. Eels, Salmon, Trout, Shad, Bream, Pike (only if you were really stuck for food though as there's more bone then meat) and char were the main quarry in the lakes and rivers. Rods and Trad methods were used. The sea though is very different. It's too deep so the spear didn't really work. We used to use a rod for big fish like coalfish and cod, but we used strong free twine with a big strong hook for monster fish like Halibut and Conger. There used to be a halibut skull at home and you could fit a child's head in the mouth of the long dead beast. We used to make lures from the head of a spoon and a hook for any kind of fish. Pike mainly though. Feathers from plucked chicken feathers with twine and a hook for mackerel, haddock and Herring. And a big lump of bait like a salmons head would get a Turbot and Halibuts attention. The coalfish was the true treasure of an Irish table. A a big fish that gave a good fight, wouldn't kill you (unlike halibut which would kill as many people as possible if you gave it the chance🤣) and was delicious Great video North. Keep up the good work, these videos are very addictive

I loved this episode. I'm a keen angler, and as a kid was fascinated with primitive fishing methods and marine foraging. I've spent countless hours making my own lures to imitate the indigenous bait fish and food items of local fish here in Ireland, with some excellent success. There's nothing like having a fishing rod almost ripped from your hands by a fish that suddenly realises, something ain't right. Especially in good strong surf conditions. Give yourself a well deserved pat on the back; your productions are beautifully conveyed and intelligently told.

The old spear tips for fish look like they're inspired by stingray barbs. The shapes are very similar. I wouldn't be surprised if they speared rays with spear tips copied from their barbs. Those barbs are very good at poking deeply into skin and flesh, it makes sense to copy them.

One of the most common nightmares (and one I've had recurring throughout my life) is of deep bodies of water and the predators that lurk beneath. In my case I've had countless nightmares throughout my life of crocodiles. Being in the water with one, not knowing where it is but knowing that it's hunting me -- preparing to attack at any moment. Things like that. I genuinely believe that certain fears and fascinations concerning bodies of water (and that which lurks within) have been genetically hard-wired into mankind's psyche over the course of millions of years of evolution. (So of course this would mean it's so ancient that even non anatomically modern humans will have been influenced in this way as well.) I'm thinking it's probably a universal fear & fascination shared by all terrestrial animals

my family lived next to a wonderful lake in Minnesota called Spirit Lake. My dad talked about the Indians coming to harvest wild rice when he was a kid. such a beautiful place.

One of the first ways I ever caught a fish as a small child was to stand still with my hands in the water and wait. In the right spot a little sunfish would swim close enough and I'd pitch him on the land. Will take all day to get a meal but can be done; right spot.

Great video.. Thanks for making it 👍👍👍 Fishing has a deep ancient feel to it.. Its almost instinctive - although you can buy any fish in a super market, catching a trout or pike in the wild and cooking it brings so much more to the body and soul

Two of my favorite subjects in the same episode

Yes! Perfect timing. Im so excited for this one.

Brilliant presentation. I don't know how I missed it. I think "fishing" and interaction with the aquatic environment was far more important to human kind than has been reported. It is almost certainly the cause of earliest habitation in North and South America. People following the coastal water way now buried due to increased water levels. Of course, in early history, fish and aquatic animals would have been easier to catch than they are today. Fewer humans and a lot more fish and animals. All they needed was a way to catch them. That's where humans excelled. Ingenuity. It may have started with a rock and a fish in a pool of water or simply hand catching a leisure catfish. I've done that myself. I have pictures of my relatives groping for huge catfish years ago. I suspect that there was also widespread use of some kind of watercraft. A floating log or a reed boat. If a human being can see the other side of a river long enough, they are going to figure out how to get to the other side. It is an absolute certainty. One eager step at a time; sharing ideas and technology. At least that was before copyright laws:-)

Yes what an incredible topic, i'll listen to it later today at the opportune moment. thank you for your vids North!

Fried catfish fillets, mashed taters, a bottle of good hot sauce to dab on my fillets, cold beer.....mmmmmmmm. I can relate to my ancient ancestors. 😀

I imagine there were huge swarms of tuna back then. They probably speared them from a raft when the tuna were in the middle of a feeding frenzy on the surface. We may even be the reason they aren't close to shore these days but you should definitely make a mother of pearl lure. That's one of the coolest things I've ever seen.

I'd like to see some experimental archaeology focused on fishing, the closest I've seen on youtube is weir and fish trap construction, and fish poison once. The basketry and the variety of tool shapes I've seen on southeast asian primitive living channels are novel too, even if some of the tools are made of steel.

This video is so timely for me. I'm working on my master's thesis on food procurement on the east coast of Florida, a very understudied and generally ignored area, in favor of our Gulf coast or south region. One of my main questions is on methods, especially with fishing, although my sites were/are huge shell middens and the majority of their subsistence was oysters, clams, whelks, etc. Its fascinating to me, and this video gave me some ideas I hadn't considered. Fishing weirs are very common the Gulf coast , but very little to no evidence on the east, and I wonder why. Very little in the way of hooks, dugout canoes, etc., so there are some mysteries here, and the sites are mostly around 7-9k ya. I wonder if any of the methods explored here might be worth looking into.

Your voice is as relaxing as a glass of wine. I listen to your videos to unwind as I’m finishing up my day. Perfect combination of interesting and relaxing. (Not even interested in a fishing game but I clicked anyway- hope it helps!)

I would say not that spearfishing is the most likely answer, but it’s the most parsimonious. It’s worth looking at baskets used as traps in SE Asia, and stone corrals used in Polynesia. There’s no evidence that early man used these techniques, but these were as available to them as fishhooks.

Prehistoric beds and sleeping arrangements among family and couples

It makes perfect sense for the earliest barbed harpoon points to be made by those who hunt catfish. Take a look at the bones in their pectoral fins: same-same.

About 25 years ago, I went fishing at a river mouth on the Wild Coast in South Africa. One day I climed up the the cliff to try and spot fish or deep channels to target, and discovered a hidden cave. Water dripping from the ceiling had carved a cross section through the debris on the cave floor. At the bottom of the cut I found selfish remains, burned shells, fish and shark teeth, stone tools, mamalian bones and teeth etc. I bagged some up and after my holiday ended I gave it in at my local museum with the map co-ordinates. They weren't particularly interested, and to my knowledge the site remains unlogged and un-excavated to this day. I wish I knew more about the site, and the people who lived and fished there.....

I always look forward to your videos! Thanks for another great one

This was so well done, thank you!

Exceptionally well done 👍 THANKS!

One of the simpler methods of fishing required the use of a "gorge." It was usually a short piece of bone, sharpened on both ends, with a groove around the middle to fasten cordage to. The idea was to insert the gorge into a soft piece of bait lengthwise. When the fish picked up the bait, it was given enough time to swallow it and then the cordage was jerked rapidly cause the gorge to turn sideways in the gullet of the fish, which could then be pulled ashore.

I was surprised that you didn't mention Budj Bim eel traps in Victoria Australia. They are dated in over 6000 years and are unesco listed. Otherwise love your work

I found this to be very interesting. For instance the colorful Polynisian spoons very surprising to me! Good job!

Very informative video. I knew fishing weirs had been found in Maine but didn't know the one in Sebasticook Lake was the oldest found. These would have been made by my ancestors.

Try this experiment yourself: get a few clam or mussel shells. Go to a stand of cattails and start cutting them with the shells, like you need blades for basket weaving, stems for arrow making (and fire drills) and fluff for pillow stuffing. (The pillows are quite warm) It won't change any archeological data but it will change your perspective since clamshells cut cattails better than a box cutter does and there are so many of them I defy you to find any archeologically that have wear on the cutting edge unless you find quahogs in Minnesota.

AS A CHILD in puerto rico in the late 1950s, lobsters could be found in 3 feet of water. 50.000 years ago the shoreline must have been filled with all kinds of seafood

You forgot to mention gorges, which were most likely the earliest form of fish "hook" and definitely the most simple form. They are linear in shape and are sharpened at one or both ends, then tied in the middle to a cord. the bait is placed on, and the fish swallows it. The thing is, if the fish tries to spit it out, it either sticks in their gills as the point pulls to right angles from the cord. The pointed end(s) can also penetrate the throat and become lodged there. Gorges can be made out of many kinds of materials including all the ones which hooks can be made of, and even the bones of larger fish. They are most often made of wood, and therefore don't survive past a few thousand years. Some primitive cultures use gorges even today, as they are simple to make and quite effective. Just to test the effectiveness of them, I have caught wild trout, bluegills, and catfish using gorges. I'm sure that someone living near the ocean would be able to catch ocean species with them. When it comes to catching cetaceans such as dolphins, those could not be caught with a gorge, and therefore any dolphin remains found at prehistoric sites must be either scavenged, or else they had technologies which we are not aware of. It wouldn't surprise me if they did though. Dugout and skin rafts wouldn't tend to last and neither would simple rafts. In addition, boats and rafts are usually hauled all the way up to living spaces, and instead are left at shore or river side. Further, people don't tend to take them with them when they move to a new location, finding it easier to make new ones than to haul all that heavy weight over rocks and through forests. Gorges are so simple that I think that their use could go back to much earlier species than even erectus. And absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. It would not surprise me to find gorges in tool assemblages only a little after Australopithecines. There are a multitude of articles online about them which can be found with a simple Google search. Here is a KZread video on the topic: kzread.info/dash/bejne/c4B4kpaSnaXXhbg.html An academic resource on the topic and be found here, though it requires a subscription, or alternately buying the book or an online copy thereof: link.springer.com/referenceworkentry/10.1007/978-1-4020-4425-0_8594 Archeological evidence for consuming fish goes as far back as 1.4 million years ago, though it is hard to determine what the hominids who were catching the fish were using to do it, as no tools h ave survived. Because of what the assemblage of bones is, it is likely they were using something more advanced than their bare hands.There are no hominid remains at the site, though there is plenty of evidence of aquatic animals having been butchered using, at the very least, stone tools. It could well have included wooden and fibre tools, though none have survived, and it is unlikely that any ever could. We know, however, though chemical analysis that fish made up a large part of the Homo Erectus diet, and made up as much as 60% of their diet at times. Again, that leaves no evidence of how they were catching the fish, but they must have been using more than their bare hands to be catching that many fish.

@Chompchompyerded

@@justinburgan4184 Thank you for your response. It is likely that they did not monitor their lines the way we do. It is most likely that they made a lot of these gorges and tossed them out and left them unattended for maybe a day or so, like some people in certain parts of the country currently use trotlines.That would leave them free to do other work such as hunting, or gathering of foods. It is interesting to note that in many primitive cultures (such as those recently contacted in the Amazon basin) leave fishing to women. It makes sense since they were the ones making the textiles, weaving the baskets, and doing the needle work on hides. Though numbers of fish in all fisheries around the world are down, you could probably test the hypothesis for yourself by making a gorge and attaching some sort of bait to it, then dropping it someplace for a 24 hour period to see what you could get. Baits might include a piece of spoiled fish or game animal meat which has gone bad. A piece of domestic animal such as beef might work too, though the fat content might make some fish less attracted to it. If you want to test it slightly more accurately, you could buy a ball of flax or hemp string and tie the gorge to that. If you have a fish on the end of your line after 24 hours, then you know first hand that doing that can work. You won't need a fishing pole or anything. You might need to tie a small pebble on a distance above the bait which you can use to get some range on it if you're casting from shore. If you're going to do it from a boat, you'll need a means of locating your bait later, and retrieving it later. Inuit fishermen and women used to use inflated seal and caribou bladders as floats which they placed in long strings just off shore. They could see the floats from land, and could then go out and retrieve them. These days people often mark their trotlines with empty jugs which previously contained milk, laundry detergent, bleach, and other similar items. They are usually then anchored to the shore where they can be located for easy retrieval. The technology is so simple that it's hard to imagine that hominids from way back did not have it. I've made and used a few of these just out of curiosity, and they work really well. The best and most successful ones I've mad have been carved out of bone; mostly chicken and turkey bone. Ones made form larger animal bones take a lot more effort to carve out, and I would think that ancient peoples would want to use the path of least time and effort expended. I have also carved a few wooden ones using flakes struck from a flint core. These are very easy to make, though not as sharp. The gorge needs not be sharp to work. It only needs to be able to turn sideways when a fish takes it once that's done, the fish will not be able to dislodge it. It will hold more firm that a barbed steel hook. It is only limited by the tensile strength of the materials used to make the gorge and the line. I hope this also adds some insight into the subject. Archeology is fascinating, and so is the history of fishing. It is one aspect of human food procurement that, until the modern industrial age, wasn't well documented or well preserved. We therefore only have tantalizing bits of evidence here and there with which to trace its existence through time.

You can fish with big rocks in the shallows, with decent success. I've done it, with the military. We called it "grug" fishing.
