Fishing is an general term for continuous fingerless charges in unstable slots. When done on the thumb, it’s usually called thumb fishing. Although the notation of these tricks is poorly defined, they usually follow the same criteria as arounds (counterclockwise is normal).

History

The name comes from Ian Jenson Fishing performed by Ian Jenson</ref>, from PSH, who was the first spinner to implement this concept from contact staff, another manipulation art, into pen spinning.

Variation

Fishtail

Fishtail is the name given to one particular kind of fishing. With all the fingers straight, starting from a palm side position, the pen does afingerless charge rev over the index finger. The hand and wrist motion alone keeps the pen spinning over 1.

fishtail = Fl charge rev 1*

This trick was devised after Ian Juggler had already made his videos, where he showed other kinds of fishings but not this one. It was Menowa* who thought of the trick, Kay who named it fishtail, and Iteza who first captured it on video and uploaded it, on February 23, 2018. The history of this name is interesting, because in contact staff the broad term for these tricks is fishtail and not fishing.

Bust Fishing

One particular kind of fishing. It can be done just on the index finger, or with the whole hand (fist bust fishing).

Drowsy Motion

A link involving the following:

(PS) MA rev 0.5 23-T2 > charge 0.5 T2 > TA ~ thumb fishing ~ TA rev T*-23
