A
Currier and Ives
lithograph
depicting
fishermen
trolling
for
bluefish
, a
technique
consisting of one or more
fishing lines
being drawn through the water, whether in a moving boat or from a static position. Trolling is used to catch
pelagic fish
such as
salmon
,
mackerel
and
billfish
. It should not be confused with
trawling
, another fishing technique that requires a
net
.
