[treis]

Landed, with this meaning, is used in the context of successfully enticing someone to give you something. Like hooking a fish with bait.

FWIW, Landing a fish is not the same as hooking it. Landing a fish literally means pulling it to land (or boat).

So landing=catching=scoring.

Depending on the type of fishing, you can still be an underdog to land the fish after hooking it.
