The Basics of Sport Fishing
from: Kyle BesserSport fishing is a popular American past time. Sport fishing is often referred to simply as recreational fishing. The challenge of sport fishing is to find and catch a region's most coveted type and species of fish. The whole event may even include eating the catch of the day.
Sport fishing methods vary by country and region. Sport fishing tournaments and competitions can depend on the specific species being targeted. From fly sport fishing to chasing down Marlin, there are many different skill levels and components involved with sport fishing tactics.

There are a few different types and forms of sport fishing:
*Bass sport fishing
*Big game sport fishing
*Shore sport fishing
*Ice sport fishing
*Lure sport fishing

Each type of fish requires a different sport fishing method for the appropriate catch. Common sport fishing species include tuna, walleye, northern pike, finger mark, trout, trevally, sailfish, and even shark.

Sport fishing bait can be as simple as sport fishing lures and spinners but may also include live fish species and other small animals. Common sport fishing bait options include night crawlers, streamers, oysters, shrimp, and crustaceans. Frozen bait is another option. Mackerel, sardines, herring, octopus, and squid are commonly used for many sport fishing competitions and events.
Sport Fishing Competition Basics
Sport fishing expeditions are becoming a popular way to take part in sport fishing around the world. Global sport fishing events can be considerably large and extensive in scope.
Scores are given to the anglers at each sport fishing competition. Each score is assigned to individuals (commonly known as shore fishers) and teams (boat fishers). Fishing is timed, and a pound-test will determine what type of value the batch has. Anglers can receive a "flat score" when they land, tag, and release a specific type of fish which is then divided by the line test.
