A fisherman, sometimes referred to as a fisher to be non-gender specific, is a person who engages in the activity of fishing. Some fishermen do this as their profession, and may belong to a cooperative, corporation, or union. Other people fish for sport, such as most anglers (who fish with a hook). Fishing may also be a subsistence activity. Some people also fish to teach others how to fish.
