Appearance
A Currier and Ives lithograph depicting fishermen trolling for bluefish, a technique consisting of one or more fishing lines being drawn through the water, whether in a moving boat or from a static position. Trolling is used to catch pelagic fish such as salmon, mackerel and billfish. It should not be confused with trawling, another fishing technique that requires a net.Artist: Frances F.
