What's stiff and smells of fish?

Driving around the countryside here in the Arctic, the activities of the local fishing industry are clear to see.  One of the products is dried fish which are put out to hang on large racks by the side of the Fjord.

The summer weather is reasonably warm considering, but there must be a large fraction of the year when the fish would freeze dry rather than warm in the sun.
