DEV-7

Angling

The method of fishing by using an "angle" (fish hook) attached to a fishing line that can be hurled outwards through the use of a rod. Light objects are used as "flies". Boats employ the use of longlining or trolling.

Tools: corf, fish hook, float
Culture: pleasure fishing becomes a contemplative, philosophical pastime.

Trap Fishing

The use of bronze metal fishtraps and chain (later, other metals and lacquered wood) for lowering a frame to the sea or river bottom to catch large shellfish and other bottom feeders.

References: eels, octopus

DEV-8

Deep Sea Fishing

The widespread use of sailing vessels enables long fishing journeys, supported by larger fishing boats able to store food for weeks at a time. Commercial fishing for profit and trade is an extensive activity, pursuing fish far into the ocean under adverse conditions. Lack of a compass denies ocean-crossing. Simple fish-processing takes place.

Tools: drift nets, gillnets
Drifter: single-masted sailing vessel with animal skins or woven fabrics for sails. Fishing involves pulling a drift net.
Culture: spread of news from abroad, rush of people to the waterfront with the return of ships followed by a feast and celebration.
Blocks
Dock: a group of structures for the handling of boats, including a solidly built stone-timbered pier with two to three storage structures and a small accounting office. Requires a minimum T(3) settlement.
References: cod-liver oil
