Remove the bones and skin from the smoked snoek and discard. Add the flaked meat in a medium bowl.
Add mayonnaise, cottage cheese, fresh dill, lemon juice, and salt. Mix until well combined. Note: some prefer a finer texture and others on the chunkier side, this depends on your personal preference.
Spread the pate onto your serving. Garnish with freshly diced red onions, capers, dill, coarsely ground black pepper and a light drizzle of olive oil. Serve with the flapjacks and dig in!
