"Fishing in a Native American Society"
For about four months out of the year,
the fish in the New World are very
much like the fish that we see in England.
However, these fish grow to be much
larger and even better to eat. Each
day, men set out to fish out of boats
with traps and with spears in shallow water.

In this illustration by John White, he artfully displays the daily act of fishing by the native people. White shows men in a canoe with the catch from the day rowing back in to shore along with two men wading in the shallow water spearing fish. It is also shown that the natives were industrious and built traps and pens to keep live fish. There is also a large variety of crustaceans, turtles, rays, and fish in the new world.
