CALIFORNIA PISH AND GAME 187 no such fixed attachmont to the bottom or shore and is therefore free to drift with any currents of the water. Two simple words of similar sound but very different meaning are constantly confused—troll and trawl. Troll literally means wander or move about, but in fishing it is the moving through the water of a line with one or more hooks. Trolling is pulling a line with hooks through the water as from the stern of a boat while under way. A trawl is a bag net intended to be dragged along, usually on the bottom of the sea, so trawling is the dragging of such a net. Fortunately in this State we are spared the confusing application of the word trawl to a long sta- tionary set line as is so frequent among fishermen in some of our eastern states. — ^,*s. Fig. 70.

Fry, Jr. A fish trap is some sort of an impounding device, drifting or set, and the term may be applied to a great variety of such structures, most of which are not permitted under California law\ Small traps for fish or lobsters may legally be used in parts of this State under certain circumstances, and such traps usually are built of wood slats or woven wire over a wood frame. A small trap constructed of cord webbing over hoops is anchored in streams but this, as well as the wicker trap fished by our Indians, is given the special name "; Strictly speaking a fyke is a funnel-shaped entrance leading to a small opening difficult to find as an exit which is the principle used in a common form.
