Q:
O que significa I weighted the fishing line with a lead sinker.?
A:
I am not certain how fishing is done in Korea, but a common way to do so in most of the US is to put a hook on the end of the fishing line, and attach a small lead weight somewhere close to where the hook is. This is so the hook and bait will sink below the surface of the water where the fish are more likely to be. This weight is called a "lead sinker".
Q:
O que significa What does it mean? He means go fishing? Could you paraphrase it for me??
A:
It’s sort of a little nuanced here. @Starlitink is right that it means “try again” in the card game Go Fish.
But here, in this clip, a few things are going on.
Savin says “Try the jet stream.” The jet stream is the very strong current of air that blows in the upper atmosphere. So, essentially, he is saying “You're going to be ejected from this plane.”
Then he says “Speaking of which…” [speaking of “streams”] go fish!” which, here means kind of both “You’re out of luck!” (you're out of options) and “Beat it” (꺼져!)—in other words, again, “You're going to be ejected from this plane.” So I’m not sure exactly how to paraphrase that but you have an idea of what it means.
[Sorry, referred to the wrong person earlier!]
