Fly fishing
Unlike light tackle fishing which often uses spinners, a fly fishing rod is equipped with fly line and has a “leader” to which is attached an artificial fly. The challenge is to deposit the fly in such a way as to attract the fish’s attention; with a bit of luck, the fish will be enticed to grab the fly, either to eat it or because the fly is bothersome. This relates particularly to Atlantic salmon; these fish stop eating when entering their home rivers and fly fishing is usually the only capture method allowed.
