Fishing is an ancient practice that dates back to at least the beginning of the Paleolithic period about 40,000 years ago. Fishing is the activity of trying to catch fish. Fish are normally caught in the wild. Techniques for catching fish include hand gathering, spearing, netting, angling and trapping.

The term fishing may be applied to catching other aquatic animals such as molluscs, cephalopods, crustaceans, andechinoderms. The term is not normally applied to catching farmed fish, or to aquatic mammals, such as whales, where the term whaling is more appropriate.

Fishing in the vicinity of marine reserves, generate benefits in these areas, according to scientific research that had been done for year. There is empirical evidence of the impact of marine areas both in areas closed to fishing and in areas closed to bottom trawling, dredgers and the like.
