Fishing

Bait is something, usually food, that is used to attract animals so you can catch them. You can use bait to attract anything that moves.
Fish hooks are baited with worms or pieces of smaller fish. mouse traps are baited with cheese or peanut butter.

A fishing hook is a small, curved piece of metal used to catch fish. It has a very sharp point that can pierce a fish's mouth and often has a barb, a tiny backward-pointing part that helps keep the fish from slipping off. The other end has an eye, or small hole, for attaching fishing line.

To get the fish to bite the hook, people put bait or a lure onto the hook. Hooks have been made from bone, wood, and shell for thousands of years, but modern ones are usually steel.

A landing net is a small fishing net mounted on a handle. Anglers use it to lift a fish out of the water after catching it.

A lure is an artificial bait used to attract and catch fish. Lures are shaped like something that fish would like to eat, and are designed so that they move in the water so fish are attracted to them and try and eat them.

A spear gun is a tool used to shoot a pointed spear through water. Spear guns are mainly used by divers to catch fish. Some spear guns use stretched rubber bands to propel the spear, while others use compressed air. A line often connects the spear to the gun so it can be pulled back and doesn't get lost.
