fish flake
A fish flake is a platform built on poles and spread with boughs for drying cod on the foreshore of fishing villages and small coastal towns in Newfoundland and Nordic countries. Spelling variations for fish flake in Newfoundland include ''flek'', ''fleyke'', ''fleake'', ''flaik'' and ''fleack'' Its first recorded use in connection with fishing appeared in Richard Whitbourne's book ''Newfoundland'' (1623, p. 57). In Norway, a flake is known as a ''hjell''.
==Construction==
The flake consists of a horizontal framework of small poles (called lungers), sometimes covered with spruce boughs, and supported by upright poles, the air having free access beneath. Here the cod are spread out to bleach in the sun and air after the fish has been curing all summer in stages under a heavy spreading of salt. There are two types of common known flakes during the height of the fishing season, one was a permanent structure as described above and the other called a hand flake that could be erected on short notice and provided for more area in the event that a fishing season was rather profitable.
