In fly fishing, a fly and chief are related to a heavy line (in many situations lined with plastic). the line is what’s easily solid, no longer the catch as in different kinds of fishing. unlike different casting procedures, fly fishing would be recognized as a manner of casting line somewhat than catch. Non-flyfishing procedures place self assurance in a catch's weight to tug line from the reel throughout the time of the forward action of a solid. via layout, a fly is only too easy to be solid, and to that end only follows the unfurling of an actual casted fly line, that's heavier and extra castable than lines utilized in different kinds of fishing. The angler often holds the flyrod interior the dominant hand and manipulates the line with the different close to to the reel, pulling line out in small increments because of the fact the capability interior the line, generated from backward and forward motions, will advance.

They are just called flying fish. There are any number of variations.
Also a number of my female bettas think they can fly. Judging by the number times they've gone airborne during feeding. Which requires me to retrieve them from the counter top.
