Fishing is one of the oldest types of activity

Fishing is one of the oldest types of activity.

Ancient people caught fish with their hands in shallow water or stunned it, caught it with a harpoon and a spear. Later, our ancestors created a prototype of a fishing rod using a fish bone hook and a fishing line from animal veins.

In ancient times, fishing was a means of human sustenance. Nowadays fishing can be industrial, amateur and sports. The latter type of activity is especially interesting, because, most often, the principle of "caught – let go" is practiced in sport fishing. That is, the principle of careful attitude to fish!

Interestingly, fishing has a positive effect on the cardiovascular system. While fishing, the heart rate decreases, which leads to equalization of breathing and improved ventilation of the lungs.
