French term or phrase: s'apéritiver
L'hameçon souriant, on s'apéritive un repas qui va gigoter sur la ligne.

Están yendo a pescar.
Sé que el verbo no existe, ¿a alguien se le ocurre cómo adaptarlo al español?

Muchas gracias

abrir boca / ir abriendo boca


Explanation:
Hola Mariana. Abrir boca es una expresión verbal (coloquial) que en España, al menos, se utiliza como sinónimo de "tomar un aperitivo" o picar algo antes de una comida. De todas formas, sinceramente, desconozco si esta misma expresión existe en el español de Argentina (de no ser así, seguro que hay alguna otra equivalente)...Saludos

abrir el apetito


Explanation:
El apéritif sirve para abrir el apetito.

Quizá en este contexto, se les abre el apetito con lo que van a pescar.

No sé si esto te ayuda :(
