Fishing can be split into 3 types. Game, coarse and sea.

Sea fishing is self explanatory.

You sure?

Eels, even at sea, remain classified as coarse within 12 miles of the
shore. Trout and salmon remain game likewise.

Game fishing invovles catching fish that are eaten

They don't have to be.

Coarse fishing involves fishing in fresh water. Because there are few
fresh water fish good to eat, they are usually put back?

Hmmm. Even that's an oversimplification.

Where will you classify grayling? What about mullet, bass, flounders and
shad in rivers?

Better not mention sticklebacks.

Cheerio,
