line fishing
Catching with string
Line fishing is catching fish using a line with a hook, as opposed to nets, traps, or spears.
The method ranges from a child's pole at a pond to commercial longlines trailing thousands of baited hooks.
He prefers line fishing to trawling because it's more selective.
