Even tho day 4 was mostly hanging out around the house and on the property, it was probably my favorite day.
We did A lot of fishing. It was amazingly easy to catch fish there, even if you didn't want too, you still could catch a fish. You would just put a lure on a fishing line, drop it straight down and pretty much all ready catch one!
Using a rod and reel we were mainly catching Atlantic Cod and a fish our Norwegian host would call a "Coal fish".
Earlier in the morning @oysteinholand set a long line out in the fjord. A long line is pretty much what it sounds like, it's and really long line with hooks about every 8 feet, and its sits on the bottom of the fjord which was about 300 feet where we were. They use the long lines for fish like Halibut, Ling, And Rose fish. (Not the prettiest of fish, but very tasty)
We had to pull the long line up into the boat by hand, I asked if I could do it for them... It was not a good idea for me to ask LOL, My back was sore for about 3 days afterwards.
That about sums up what day 4 was like
Thanks for reading!

Hooks every 8 feet? Dang just how long was the entire line?

I can’t remeber exactly but I think it’s over a hundred feet
