I enjoy fishing, the activity of catching a fish, even if I don't do it much/
Me too, I live the sport of fishing, it really relaxes me. Whats your favorite kind of fish? 
Rod fishing is the only one I've done.  never tried hand gathering, netting or spearing.  What about you?
Ive never tried netting or spearing either, But I hear its a lot more difficult than a traditional rod. 
I imagine, it looks difficult, it requires real skills.  What I like is that in addition to providing food it is a fun pastime too.

Fishing is an ancient practice that dates back to at least the beginning of the Upper Paleolithic period about 40,000 years ago.

Archaeology features such as shell middens, discarded fish bones, and cave paintings show that sea foods were important for survival and consumed in significant quantities.
