Neanderthals could have learned to make a crude beer.

Associating fermented fruits and grains to getting drunk and liking if, making beer would be next.

Once one learned to make beer, then fishing became popular. Fishing & beer go together.

*Teach a man to fish and he will drink all your beer.

We used to go fishing to catch a buzz not necessarily to catch fish. If one or two happened to ring our pole bell great. lol

fishing is not a water sport unless one specifies that the Neanderthals fished by dunking their heads underwater and waited to bite the fish.

Appreciate you sharing. So does it work similar to a weaving shuttle?
