　　法国巴黎 街钓

　　AFP: In Paris, there is a new wave of "street fishers". They can be seen at the French capital's canals as well as the Seine, where pike, giant catfish¹ and black bass² have returned in large numbers to healthier waters.

　　Instead of rubber boots and flatcaps, the urban fisherman is more likely to be sporting jeans and a T-shirt, and the practice seems to be drawing an ever-younger crowd.

　　Fred Miessner said he began teaching children the basics of street fishing a few years ago.

　　Passersby³ and the beeping of car horns do not seem to put them off.
