I have been fishing many times, but not fly fishing, which is fishing with an artificial fly used to catch the fish.
I didn't know it was an artificial fly! I have never been fishing but I learned about fly fishing in a movie.
Fly fishing
Fly fishing is an angling method that uses a light-weight lure -- called an artificial fly -- to catch fish. The fly is cast using a fly rod, reel, and specialized weighted line. The light weight requires casting techniques significantly different from other forms of casting. The flies may resemble natural invertebrates, baitfish, or other food organisms.
Fly fishing can be done in fresh or salt water. North Americans usually distinguish freshwater fishing between cold-water species (trout, salmon, steelhead)
bait rig similar to the Texas rig, but with the weight fixed above the hook, instead of sliding down to it.
