What I am reading

I am reading the book called The Old Man and The Sea. Written by Ernest Hemingway. I just started it so, so far the old man talked to his friend who is a boy who used to go fishing with him but the dad made him go on another boat. One word I didn't know was:

Gaff
a stick with a hook or barbed spear, for landing large fish.
I used the Gaff to catch the giant marlin.

Bud-shields
Unknown word that the author might have made up
