I've always like to go fishing.  At first it was more for food.  Then I stop.  A few years ago, brother-in-law reintroduce fishing to me again.  First year, was from shore.  Following year, bought myself a cheap kayak.  It did its job.  Caught my PB from that very first kayak.  This year, bought myself another kayak.  Just went out yesterday after work to test.  Besides being foggy, it was cold.  Didn't bring a fishing pole.  Sole purpose of the trip was just to test out the new ride.  I gotta tell you.......I love fishing.  The open space on a calm lake.....price less.  I don't matter if I catch any or not, as I only catch and release....exp ect one which I brought it home.

When in Laos and Thailand, it was for "food"...It wasn't a hobby for me but more so for survival..

Both.  I only fish for what I eat and to give to others that don't fish.  Also spend time with the homies.  If we catch our limit, we grill out, and call the other homies to kick it.

I've seen fishing addiction cause family problems. Not all but many men who fish too much have angered their spouses; women who fish too much have forgotten to care for their children, etc.

That's why  I don't fish enough to create such problems. Last year I gave away over 24 old fishing poles. I did keep four aside from those. But I fished only three times: one time without catching anything, one time catching some crappies and given some crappies from my Cambodian friend's family that took me fishing, and the other time ocean fishing with a Vietnamese friend from San Jose who gave me all of the 14 catches.

This year I tried ice fishing once. Caught nothing. Not going to fish again till spring. But then even then I'll be going only once. I don't think the belle even cares about fishing. We might just go on cruises instead.

I'd say addicted to buying fishing gear.  I know people that spends hundreds on fishing gear.  At one point I was addicted to fishing but no addicted to buying gear.  Used to fish after work and all day on the weekends.  Literally no room in the 2nd freezer.  Always grilling fish and giving fish away.  It got to point that my mom gave all fish away.  I slowed down a lot after I started snowboarding and that cost a whole lot more.
