Text Appearing Before Image: UA\\.\ii.\:. :.i:.Ai: fisherman The Hawaiians are the most expert swimmers in the world, and are nearly as much athome in the water as on land. This special adaptation for water life serves a most usefulpurpose when employed in connection with fishing, and has resulted in the development ofa number of methods not to be seen elsewhere. These spirited photographs illustrate a uniqueway of speur fishing. On a rugged shore, where the waves are churned into foam, the hardy,skillful fisherman makes a prodigious plunge head foremost into the surf while holding fast tothe long spear. Free-swimming fishes are thus captured, and the wily octopus and retiringspiny lobster hiding in the crevices of the rock are impaled.— Photo from C. G. Crane.
