Hook and line fishing

Hook and line fishing involves using a single fishing line with a hook attached to catch fish. The angler casts or positions the line in water where fish are present, waiting for a fish to bite the bait on the hook. This method allows for selective catching, often targeting specific species, and provides a controlled, sustainable way to fish. It can be done from shore, a boat, or structure, and is popular for sport, recreation, and commercial purposes due to its precision and effectiveness.
