Summary:flake n I suppose the last thing my father hauled out of the woods.was flake boughs. He would select the best branches from the fir and spruce trees, and a few white spruce boughs mixed in with them. These he would haul to the fish flakes and spread them out. These would be pressed out by placing large sticks or logs on them, so that they would be quite flat by the time the caplin were ready to be spread on them. Caplin were the first fish to be spread on the flake. GMS feb 81 Used I and Sup Used I and Sup 2 Used I
