Odysseus’s men are compared to caught fish, showing their helplessness statement best explains the metaphor in this excerpt.

"I happened to glance aft at ship and oarsmen

and caught sight of their arms and legs, dangling

high overhead. Voices came down to me

in anguish, calling my name for the last time."

Odysseus is compared as a 'heartless malevolent person'.

"A man who surfs rocky areas in search of bass and mackerel, throws a long rod plumb and bait into the distance, hooks fish, hangs them out of the water, and writhes. Stones are compared to simple tasks that demonstrate his strength." It is wise to know the enemy you are facing.
