Description The Straits Salish Indians of the San Juan and Straits of Georgia's islands were using an advanced technique to catch sockeye salmon hundreds of years ago; probably before Columbus, Vespucci, Bering, Drake and other European explorers were even born.
That technique survives today and is considered to be one of the most environmentally sensitive of all the methods of catching fish.
The indigenous peoples we now know as the Lummi, the Samish, the Semiahmoo, the Sooke, the Songish, and the Saanich, were a distinct group particularly distinguished by their invention of, and use of, an ingenious apparatus known today as the reef net; an apparatus especially designed to catch the elusive sockeye salmon.
This book tells the story of the reef net as invented by an unknown genius among the Straits Salish peoples of hundreds of years ago.
This book is also an attempt to examine the lessons to be learned from the past and their potential for informing the future; what can we learn from the past to enhance our approach to the future? The lessons of the reef net include respect for a people capable of developing an advanced technology based on the natural world they lived in.
The lessons of the reef net lead to an increased respect for the environment.
The lessons of the reef net include material for reflection about the value of self-reliance and an entrepreneurial spirit.
The lessons of the reef net have much to teach about the value of community and people working in a common cause.
Invented hundreds of years ago, the reef net is still in use today.
