[...] le dapping a été l'une des premières formes de pêche en dérive. Cette technique de pêche nécessite des appâts vivants comme les mouches de mai par exemple. L'équipement particulier et propre à cette pêche est constitué d'une très longue canne munie d'un brin de nylon et de la soie floche large devant l'appât pour lui permettre de sautiller à la surface de l'eau sans vraiment y tomber.
