Fly fishing is a method of angling that uses a lightweight lure called a fly to catch fish. Unlike traditional fishing, where bait is used, fly fishing relies on the ability to cast the fly with precision. The angler uses a specialized rod, reel, and line designed to support the lightweight fly, allowing for delicate presentations on the water's surface. This technique is often practiced in freshwater environments, such as rivers and lakes, targeting species like trout and bass. Fly fishing can be both a relaxing pastime and a challenging sport, requiring skill in casting and an understanding of fish behavior.
