fishing
Lakeside rod sport
Fishing is the activity of trying to catch fish, whether for food, sport, or livelihood.
Commercial fishing supplies seafood markets; recreational fishing is a popular pastime: We went fishing at the lake.
Figuratively, fishing means seeking something indirectly: fishing for compliments, a fishing expedition to uncover information without knowing what you'll find.
