Hi All, I remembered that DH used to get eels with his Uncle Everett. Uncle Everett built a houseboat that he lived on on the Connecticut River which runs right past Brattleboro, Vermont, where we live. Anyway, I remembered to ask DH tonight and they caught the eels with a line. However, he suggested Googling "Frog Spears" and there are lots of listings for modern Frog Spears. The ones I looked at all were like tridents but there might be some there with the middle "killing" tine! Or you might write to one of the companys and ask about it.
Also Tamara and German arachnes might suggest what to Google in Polish and German. Oh, I also looked up Frog Gigs since somebody wrote about "gigging" and that brought up a lot of spears too. I think the froggers bring the frogs home alive so it might not bring up what your friend wants, David. Jane in Vermont, USA who enjoyed thinking about frogs and eels while cooking <G>. Cooking is not my favorite activity! And we're having April showers to bring the May flowers!
