fly fisherman
Wader with rod
A fly fisherman is someone who practices fly fishing—a method of angling that uses lightweight artificial lures called flies, cast with a specialized rod and weighted line.
The technique requires skill in casting and reading water.
The fly fisherman waded into the stream at dawn.
The term applies regardless of gender, though *fly fisher* is sometimes preferred as a neutral alternative.
