It is difficult to tell from this painting where in Koshu this is,

but since there is not a single light from a house,

it appears to be somewhere in the mountains.

Hifuri fishing is a fishing method in which a light is shone on the water's surface

in the middle of the night and fish are speared or scooped up,

and it is also called yafuri, yakiami, or yataki.
