Is fishing a sport?

Many people think that fishing can be considered a sport. You can compete with others when it comes to catching fishes. However, on the other hand, many people believe that fishing is rather a recreational activity and it is not a sport. What do you think?

Fishing is sport to me. Just because it doesn't require running up and down, doesn't mean it's easy. I once followed my uncle to go fishing and I nearly fainted from boredom and sun. It takes skill, timing, calmness. It also needs mental strength too.

No I wouldn't consider fishing a sport.
