fishing community
Harbor town anglers
A fishing community is a settlement or group of people whose livelihood and culture center on catching fish.
These communities typically develop near productive waters—coastal towns, lakeside villages, river settlements—and share traditions, knowledge, and economic ties related to the industry: The fishing community has worked these waters for generations.
The term can also describe a looser network of people connected by the practice: the recreational fishing community.
