What did Ramo like to do?

Ramo loved to fish. In fact, when his people are being evacuated by the white man, Ramo misses the ship (and causes his sister to do the same) because he goes back to get his fishing spear.

I looked out across the deck and the sea. There, running along the cliff, the fishing spear held over his head, was Ramo.

I kept thinking over and over as I swam how I would punish Ramo when I reached the shore, yet when I felt the sand under my feet and saw him standing at the edge of the waves, holding his fishing spear and looking so forlorn, I forgot all those things I planned to do. Instead I fell to my knees and put my arms around him.
