There are also more berries and edible greens in the mountains that can help provide the nutrients that a fish diet lacks. Just make sure you're not blithely gobbling some poisonous berries like certain self-assured yet somehow famous (and dead) jerks.
Nah, the amount of energy required to forage for food far exceeds the caloric requirements; even in a rich environment you would be hard pressed to make it work. You need to bring in as many calories as you will need, everything else is a bonus.
