Going Fishing?

Fishing refers to the practise of catching fish either for sport or for food that goes back to ancient times all over the world that have lived by the coast have also learned to hunt for fish and catch them for food.


Fishing by hand is very difficult and considered to be very skilful (ask the fungfu master to show you). Using a spear or a bow is also difficult but is used by some people today.

Net fishing, where nets are cast into the water to catch fish and particularly the more slippery marine life like eels is the easiest and efficient. Modern fishermen still use nets dragged by boats to trawl the water for a big harvest of fish. This is illegal because the breeding ground beneath the sea will be annihilated.

Sport fishing is competitive and the rules are based on anything from number of fish caught to the weight and size of the fish. It is more common for sport fishing to go out to sea, where some people tackle the challenge of larger fish such as tuna or even sharks.

Nature has it own creation for excellent fishing birds. This is the real kungfu because such predators come stealthily to scoop their food at the least expected moment.


Anglers can be seen everywhere. At river banks or in the open sea, fishing has become the fast catching up hobby. The most important requirement is to have the patience to wait even for a bite, and the time spent waiting is worth all the efforts.
