Maybe it's because you're not really asking a question but making an insulting statement intended to ellict exactly this reaction. Even if this sort of "question" was genuine it's predicated on a huge set of assumptions and systems interactions that makes it worthless as a question, but great as a campaign gotcha!

Also, fishing is most definitely not a "sport".

Fishing for non-commercial/sustenance purposes is quite literally referred to as "sport fishing." Perhaps you should save the condescending tone for topics you're more familiar with.

Welcome to the fishing forum flame wars.

Many divisive topics, such as catch and release or eating young fish ("bucket heads"), barbless hooks, etc. Hell, even fly fishermen get into internet slap fights over certain kinds of flies.
