Fishing Sport

Fishing is a sport and not a pure hobby. Like most sports, fishing is physical activity and skill that is competitive. Fishing events and competitions are held throughout the world every year. Generally, fishing is a leisure activity but is also a competitive activity.

 

Sport fishing is catching fish for no commercial purpose. It is practiced individually or in groups. In many countries, anglers are organized in special organizations that also organize competitions. International and national rules have been drawn up for sport fishing.While the skills necessary to catch a couple fish might be easy to learn, they're still skills and there are so many levels of competency within fishing. Like anything, with practice, training, and experience, one can get really good at fishing. 스포츠토토


Origin
Fishing as a sport, however, is of considerable antiquity. An Egyptian angling scene from about 2000 bce shows figures fishing with rod and line and with nets. A Chinese account from about the 4th century bce refers to fishing with a silk line, a hook made from a needle, and a bamboo rod, with cooked rice as bait.

 

When was fishing line invented?
In 1884 “artifical” line is invented in France by a process that used twisted silk that was mixed with resin and chemicals. This represented the first line that was not made from all natural fibers. In 1937, Warren Carrosas of DuPont succeeded in synthesizing the world's first nylon (66 nylon) line.

Japan started fishing in international waters around 1960. Prior to this Japanese fishing operations were restricted to coastal regions. However, there is a long history behind fishing in Japan. Since tuna bones have been discovered in shell heaps, it is believed that ancient people in Japan consumed tuna.

Who introduced fishing?
Fish fossils found during archaeological digs appear to show that Homo habilis then Homo erectus were the first fishermen, some 500 000 years ago. However, fishing probably only really developed after the appearance of Homo sapiens during the Upper Paleolithic period between 40 000 and 10 000 years BCE.

1. Spearfishing. Spearfishing is an age-old fishing method that has been used by fishermen around the world for thousands of years. The earliest records of spearfishing show the use of harpoons in India and France as far back as 16,000 years ago.
