Figure 103. Eastern Polynesian bonito hooks: a, Hawaiian simple point; b, Hawaiian point, slight distal projection; c, Tahitian point, typical distal projection. a, typical shank (1), head pierced by transverse hole (2); point (3) simple with one hole; one shank-point lashing (4) through point hole, and hackle (5) with lashing through hole; snood (6) attached directly to point through point hole, seized as far as head, attached to head by snood lashing (7) through head hole. b, shank (1) with r…

Figure 103. Eastern Polynesian bonito hooks: a, Hawaiian simple point; b, Hawaiian point, slight distal projection; c, Tahitian point, typical distal projection. a, typical shank (1), head pierced by transverse hole (2); point (3) simple with one hole; one shank-point lashing (4) through point hole, and hackle (5) with lashing through hole; snood (6) attached directly to point through point hole, seized as far as head, attached to head by snood lashing (7) through head hole. b, shank (1) with rather long head with transverse hole (2); point (3) with small distal projection (8) which, however, is without function in lashing; one hole; one shank-point lashing (4) through point hole but with hackle (5) lashed around shank-point lashing; snood (6) attached directly to point hole, seized as far as head, attached by snood lashing (7) to head hole. c, shank (1) with typical head with transverse hole (2); point (3) with one hole and prolonged distal projection (8); two shank-point lashings, proximal (4) through point hole and distal (9) over groove in distal projection; hackle (5) fixed by some turns of distal shank-point lashing; snood (6) attached directly to point through hole; seized for part distance, attached to head through hole by snood lashing (7).
