Sport fishing is a recreational activity where individuals catch fish for enjoyment rather than for food or commercial purposes. It often involves using specialized equipment, such as rods, reels, and bait, to attract various species of fish. Anglers may fish in freshwater or saltwater environments, including lakes, rivers, and oceans. Participants in sport fishing often follow specific regulations to ensure sustainable practices, such as catch-and-release methods. This helps maintain fish populations and protects aquatic ecosystems. Tournaments and competitions are also common, where anglers compete for prizes based on the size or number of fish caught.
