Science - Zoology
Swedish term or phrase: Ädelfiske
I know this encompasses fish such as trout and salmon and that the exact translation is "noble fish" but I know nothing about fishing and so do not know if there is an English term for this. I was wondering if it was "fresh water fish" - I would appreciate some help!

Hökensås har fått sitt namn av den 10 mil långa urbergsrygg som i öster avgränsas av Vätterns strand. Urbergsryggen är 300 meter hög, långsmal och mjukt kuperad, ett Norrland i miniatyr. Det är ett ljuvligt naturvårdsområde med barrskog, ett 60-tal sjöar och tjärnar varav cirka hälften har inplanterad ädelfisk.
Hökensås got its name from the 100 kilometre (62 miles) long ridge which is bordered in the east by the lake Vättern. The ridge raises to over 300 metres (980 feet) a feature that contributes to its undulating topography of eskers covered with Scots Pine trees. The area contains about 60 small lakes and the in most of the lakes have transplanted game fish.
