The four-tined spear head exactly like this is very common as a tip for fishing spears in diverse cultures- moreso than the trident. I have always wondered if this was just a spear-head, continuing the fisherman theme of the retarius, with the hand-held ones being broken off tips of spears.
I regularly throw a cast net by the way, and I can't think of how something of this shape would help.
