Respect to all you rod and line fishermen/ ladies, I guess it can be really relaxing and tranquil.
My personal fishing passion is though, is more like a fps or flight sim as it is lock & load, search and destroy and sometimes escape & evasion (Sharks & Sea Lions!!). Here in the cool (read cooold) waters of Sthn NZ we spearfish great eating Butterfish amongst the kelp -pick your fish for dinner rather than wait for them to come to you & never catch undersize by mistake.
Never weighed one, but can grow up to 700mm long & biggest we got would be approx 650mm.
This one is an average size (would be approx 450mm). -Yum!
