Trolling (fishing)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Not to be confused with Trawling.

Trolling is a method of fishing where one or more fishing lines, baited with lures or bait fish, are drawn through the water. This may be behind a moving boat, or by slowly winding the line in when fishing from a static position, or even sweeping the line from side-to-side, e.g. when fishing from a jetty. Trolling is used to catch pelagic fish such as salmon, mackerel and kingfish.

Trolling can be phonetically confused with trawling, a different method of fishing where a net (trawl) is drawn through the water instead of lines. Trolling is used both for recreational and commercial fishing whereas trawling is used mainly for commercial fishing.

Trolling from a moving boat involves moving quite slowly through the water. This can be accomplished with the use of a special trolling motor. Multiple lines are often used, and outriggers can be used to spread the lines more widely and reduce their chances of tangling. Downriggers can also be used to keep the lures or baits trailing at a desired depth. Trolling baits and lures is sometimes considered a lesser form of angling by fishing’s elite players such as magazine editors and industry professionals, as it requires little or no skill. This is however fiercely debated by troll fisherman. It is often a banned method in regional districts and inland as due to the nature of this method a lot of ground can be covered and fish stocks depleted with little skill or effort involved.
