Fish
A Game fish is a fish that is pursued for sport,
regardless of whether the fisherman ultimately eats
the fish. Gamefish may be part of a commercial fishery,
such as salmon. They may also be exclusively fished
for by recreational anglers, such as is the case
with tarpon. The most common game fish are the billfish
species, salmon, trout, and bass. Common game fish
have been transported worldwide. Rainbow trout,
for instance, can now be found nearly anywhere that
the climate is appropriate, from their original
home on the Pacific Coast of North America to the
mountains of southern Africa.
