What does fishing mean to you?

Peace, serenity, calming, family, friends, adrenaline, excitement, patience,...

There's a multitude of expressions that I can define what it means to myself. I'm certain that you may feel quite similar out there on the water, too.

What does the actual term mean though? Angling in freshwater or saltwater trying to catch fish, for a variety of species.

Our actual definition can be found on our angler's terms and definitions page. - "To take fish by way of hand, or using a hook with live bait, dead bait, or artificial lures, which is attached to line spooled on a reel and rod."

If you need a more elaborate explanation of the term, go check out a dictionary, thesaurus or Wikipedia.
