« Fishing equipment in the Speck collection includes seven fish hooks, five of which have wooden shanks and bone points. The shank is split at the distal end for insertion of the point at about a 30 degree angle. Commercial two-ply twine was used to bind the split area of the shank and more twine was secured about the center of the point and then about the shank. There is a knob at the proximal end of the shank to which is fastened a short piece of caribou skin which served as a leader (fig. 3g). » Vanstone, James W. "The Speck Collection of Montagnais Material Culture from the Lower St. Lawrence Drainage, Quebec." Fieldiana. Anthropology. New Series, No. 5 (October 29, 1982), p.6, fig. 3g (p.31). « Hooks of both types were baited with minnows and used with set lines. Muskellunge, pike, and other large fish swallowed the hook which then caught in the stomach rather than in the mouth or gills. Fish hooks with wooden shanks were used by the neighboring Mistassini and are described and illustrated by Rogers (1967, p. 88, pi. XIV-A). » Ibis.

« Tobacco pouches, particularly the roll-up variety, were frequently closed with the aid of fasteners which also served as pipe cleaners. There are 13 of these in the Speck collection and they are quite similar, consisting of a narrow piece of bone tapered or pointed at one end with a suspension hole at the other. Usually the neck constricts and there is a series of notches around the suspension hole. Another characteristic is parallel or crossed incised lines below the suspension hole. Typical examples are illustrated (fig. 9e,g,i-j). » Vanstone, James W. "The Speck Collection of Montagnais Material Culture from the Lower St. Lawrence Drainage, Quebec." Fieldiana. Anthropology.
