Throw a spear, a bone harpoon, a javelin or even an arrow at a trout you can see in the shallows. If the point meets the fish where it swims, the fish is yours, pinned to the bottom where the point came down. Everyone near sees the splash, and a struck trout thrashes in a burst of spray. Miss, and the whole pool bolts for half a minute. Water deeper than about a meter is safe from you. Later the same day a hard throw into a shallow stream stopped passing straight through the water without a splash.
Keep your eyes on the ground in dry country, among sagebrush and juniper and in the desert, and along lake and creek shores: now and then an old obsidian arrowhead lies there. There are five kinds: leaf-shaped, banded side-notched, corner-notched with a mahogany streak, a tiny translucent bird point and, very rarely, a fluted Clovis point. Fit one to a shaft at Crafting 3 for an obsidian-tipped arrow. It cuts deeper than stone but shatters more often on rock and bone, and your bow shoots it first.
