They look like hooks, but where did they attach the line, and how would it hold well enough to drive such a broad crudely sharpened point through a fishes jaw? Until they can explain that they are just guessing.

I doubt they are fish hooks...more likely a pair of rod holders for mounting on side the cave walls.  |
 Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

Just read the SCIENCE article on line. They have bone evidence in the caves that they were eating small tuna... they cannot determine if they were caught by hooks or using nets based on the evidence they have collected... They did make hooks from the larger fish bones so maybe they were trolling???

Here's the Science article to which BT refers and another interesting piece done by Mustad on Hook History.

"Dr. O’Connor suspects that the first Australians eventually lost interest in deep-sea fishing and maritime technology because they had discovered a land rich in marsupials — strange but edible terrestrial creatures. "

Be careful you might be a redneck Aboriginal.  Good day mate |

just watched the catch big fish show where they utilized woven
stalks of plants to create a "fear barrier" fence that helped the locals coral
schools of fish and then herd them into a circular walled up area where they
were easily speared with no escape. Very interesting
