Troll′ing-spoon.
A bait trailed behind a boat to attract and catch fish. The name is derived from the frequent use of a silvered spoon bowl to which the hook is soldered, and which is connected by a snood to the line. In the example, the bright piece a is rotated as it is drawn through the water, and reflects the light in different directions, like the silvery scales of a small fish in motion. |
