North American Indians, Shuswap Night Fishing

Illustration showing Shuswap (or Secwepemc) men fishing at night, using a torch of pitch-soaked wood to attract spawning fish. One attends to the flame while the other spears the fish, and a third paddles. The hats probably shielded their eyes from the glare of the torch, allowing them to see the fish. The Shuswap are a First Nations people residing in British Columbia, Canada.
