стана ли много любопитно и питах приятелка, която живее вече 15 години в САЩ. и тя се затрудни, защото все пак не сме наясно с рибарската терминология, направо копирам какво ми писа тя:
here is what I can come up with... so basically it is trying to check and see if the fish is therе
so one way of saying is using the word "bait"
which is basically all that junk you put on the fishing poll hook
so I asked a couple of guys at work
and they said that you "test" or "scan" the water or throw bait
not too much help
or luring the fish with bait
