Overview

Abe is the husband of Rose and father of Joel and Zill. Link first meets Abe when he is crouched down on his knees, hunting a black Pig. He tells Link that he wishes to capture the pig and give it to his wife as a present. Abe then teaches Link a technique on how to sneak up and catch a pig. He also suggests that Link could just distract the pig with All-Purpose Bait. If Link moves to fast he will frighten the pig.

When Abe was a young man, he was very popular with the ladies. But one day, one woman, who turned out to be Rose, was the only woman he wanted. After a few tries, he finally got Rose to marry him. He loves his family very much, and wishes for them all to be happy. The whole reason he wants to give his wife a pig is because she always wanted a pet, and he thought that a wild pig would be the perfect present.

If Link catches it by sneaking up on it, he can bring it to Abe's wife, who then gives him a red Rupee as a reward and subsequently names the pig after Link.

You ready to go grab it, [Link]? Now, you can't just run up on it! Pigs are too alert about their surroundings for you to just jog up and capture one. If you want to get close to one, you have to hold [R] to crouch and tilt [+] to crawl slowly up behind it. Slowly... You could also distract it with bait, I guess." — Abe, The Wind Waker.
