Quite of few of the local dishes revolve around freshly caught fish from Como di Lago. Fishermen go out in the night to fish and bring in their catch in the early morning. Sometimes when you walk by the house you can see someone cleaning fish in the morning, or mending and cleaning nets in the afternoon.
The boat is small, with a spot light mounted on the side. I asked if they were going after trout and was told that trout are winter fish, they are really deep this time of the year. I didn't recognize any of the other fish that I saw, but on my lake side walks, I would often see large fish swimming near the seawall.
Above the patio of the fisherman's home was a large picture by a well know local artist of Jesus and his disciples bringing in their catch. The painting has a piece of glass over it to protect against the elements, but also made photographing it hard because of the constant glare.
