I primarily fish for sport since I am a sportfisherman.

On my days off, I do fish for relaxation though.Cool

I fish for all of the above. I think you should include that in the poll, sport, food, and relaxation. That is why fishing rules!Fishin'

Fishing for food has never been my motivation. Reason being would be that I would starve to death waiting for a meal and the other is there are very few species that I find to my liking. I could eat broiled salmon 24/7 but they're kind of scarce in SoCal except at Safeway.

I added another option in there. If you already voted then it is too late to add your vote on that one but we do know where your heart is on the poll.
