  2. Fishing rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishing_rod

    At its most basic form, a fishing rod is a straight rigid stick/pole with a line fastened to one end (as seen in traditional bamboo rod fishing such as Tenkara fishing); however, modern rods are usually more elastic and generally have the line stored in a reel mounted at the rod handle, which is hand-cranked and controls the line retrieval, as ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishing_tackle

    A fishing reel is a device used for the deployment and retrieval of a fishing line using a spool mounted on an axle. Fishing reels are traditionally used in angling.

    Angling with fishing rods give more control of the fishing line, and allows the bait/lure to be launched much farther than hand-throwing can reach. The rod is usually fitted with a fishing reel which functions as a mechanism for storing, retrieving and paying out the line. Floats may also be used, and can function as bite indicators. The hook ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_and_tackle

    Typical values are 1.04 for roller bearing sheaves and 1.09 for plain bearing sheaves (with wire rope). [11] The increased force produced by a tackle is offset by both the increased length of rope needed and the friction in the system. In order to raise a block and tackle with a mechanical advantage of 6 a distance of 1 metre, it is necessary ...

  7. Bottom trawling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottom_trawling

    Bottom fishing has operated for over a century on heavily fished grounds such as the North Sea and Grand Banks. While overfishing has long been recognised as causing major ecological changes to the fish community on the Grand Banks, concern has been raised more recently about the damage which benthic trawling inflicts upon seabed communities ...
