Summary
The brothers who met the trout-spectre.
One day, two brothers were trout-fishing. They set the net at a particular spot, and one brother went upstream to scare the fish down into the net. Whilst he was away, a stranger appeared at the net, and the brother understood that this was no ordinary person. When the other brother returned, the spectre vanished, and they hurried home empty-handed.
As told to the contributor by one of the men who experienced it.
