I like to fish sometimes, what about you?
I have been fishing which means to try to catch fish, but I've never caught one
That's too bad, but sometimes the act of fishing itself is satisfying, even if you don't catch a fish.
Yes that's true, recreational fishing/sport fishing is fishing for pleasure.
Yes, you get to be outside surrounded by nature.  It let's you feel connected to nature.
Yes, and if you hook a fish you are directly connected via a rod, reel, line and hook.
Absolutely!  Plus you can let the fish go after you catch it if you don't want to keep it to eat.
Cleaning fish to eat is a lot of work and very messy, I would rather just try to catch them.
