Abstract

Recreational fishing or sport fishing is one of the most sought after adventure tourism activities and has a booming international business opportunity. Like sport fishing, fee-fishing is a concept of paying for the right to fish or paying for any fish that is caught and is rapidly becoming popular among anglers. Fee-fishing offers many aspects like family entertainment (both fun and educational), no fishing license is required and gives younger anglers a chance to learn how to catch fish successfully. A better, more complete concept of a fee-fishing operation takes into account that the visitors or guests, view fee-fishing in the larger context of a tourism experience, instead of
fishing in densely stocked ponds as only one component.
