Game fishing is catching large, challenging fish for sport rather than food.
Targeting species like marlin, tuna, trevally, and other big, strong fish counts as game fishing.
It’s called “game” fishing because these fish are treated like a sport or challenge, similar to hunting game.
Popular game fish include marlin, tuna, sailfish, dolphin fish, spanish mackerel and giant trevally.
It’s not recommended; alcohol can impair safety and judgment on the water.
