Chase Netting
Went up to the mountains for a short trip. To my surprise the fish had already started the spawn run and two of them hid under a big, flat rock. To catch them I encircled the rock with a gill net and started probing underneath with a stick. Unsurprisingly, they fled their hiding place and got caught in the gill net. Fairly good sized, the roe, liver and hearts were consumed right after to accompany the cloudberries and dried meat I ate earlier in the day.
The fish themselves were brought down to be shared with my family and eaten with chantarelles and potatoes.

Get my book "Traditional Trout Fishing: Fishing for Survival in the North (Volume 1)
".
Looks delicious, I am sure it tasted even better =)
