Passage 4
Sportfishing may be done in fresh water or salt water. Freshwater fishing takes place in lakes, ponds, rivers, and streams. fish found in these waters tend to be larger than average freshwater fish. The three most favored methods of fishing in both salt and fresh water are bait fishing (the use of live or dead bait placed on a hook). spin fishing (the use of metal or plastic lures(诱饵) ) . and fly-fishing (the use of feathered lures resembling either insects or small fish ). In all three methods, a fisher chooses a rod(竿) . a reel(线轴), and line of an appropriate weight and strength.
The best sportfishing occurs in spring and fall, when fish are most active, either searching for prey or reproducing. Although they may be caught during winter and summer, fish are generally more sluggish(行动迟缓的)then and less likely to chase the lure. Several other factors influence fishing. Water temperature is important, as different species are more active at different temperature levels. Also, if a fish's natural prey is nearby, that fish will be active. Some fish. particularly in salt water, move to different areas depending upon the phase of the moon and the levels of the ocean tides. Weather affects fish activity, as fish are more likely to search for food before and after bad weather, when the water is disturbed.
