I grew up on Newfoundland and when I was a kid I don’t remember my parents ever buying a fishing license and we fished all the time.
My favour fish were Unidentified at the time, mainly bc I didn’t know any better and my parents never taught me…but I’m pretty sure I ate a lot of young salmon as the “trout” I preferred were always pink inside.
I don’t remember fearing bears and the only other large wildlife we looked out for were moose, as they are fairly dangerous. I know my hometown was populated with lynx as I’ve seen them dead before when galavanting in the woods….actually that’s pretty much where I grew up, in the woods….my parents also never worried about me or told me to be aware of large wildlife
