How to use "Riffle" in context?
Riffle fishing is one of the oldest forms of fishing still practiced today. It is possible to catch a wide variety of fish with a riffle fishing net, including trout, salmon, and even tuna.
The basic idea behind rifler fishing is to slowly sweep a net in a wide arc over the water to intercept fish as they swim by. This type of fishing is very flexible and can be done in any kind of water, from fast-flowing rivers to still ponds.
Riffles can be set up at various depths, depending on the type of fish you are targeting.
