 Fishing Terms to Know Attractor - a fly that is designed to look like nothing in particular but rather to attract the attention of the fish. A Woolly Bugger is an example of an Attractor fly. Barbless - a type of hook which does not have a barb on the pointed end. Barbless hooks are easier to set in the jaw of the fish and make it easier to release a fish unharmed. Many streams and rivers don't allow hooks with barbs to be used. Cast - The process of delivering a fly to the intended target. Double Haul - A type of cast characterized by the quick pulling in and releasing the fly line in both the backcast and the forecast. Used for long distance casting or with strong wind. Double Taper - A fly line that tapers at both ends allowing the user to reverse the line when one end begins to wear. Floatant - A substance applied to a dry fly to assist it to sit high on the water surface and not absorb water. Load - Stored energy in a rod resulting from forcing a bend into the rod. Mend - To move the fly line upstream from the location of the fly to ensure no unwanted drag is on the fly that may scare a fish Weight Forward - A fly line designed with more weight towards the front of the line to assist in casting and loading the rod.
