I don't really see the lure of having fishing in the Olympics.

And why stop there? They already have curling, right? Might as well have the Games in Drumnadrochit and add a bagpipe contest, caber tossing and Nessie spotting.
Got turned off when they added golf to Olympics. Totally unnecessary with 4 majors + Ryder Cup in same year. I challenge you to name the Australian Olympic golf team. Hell, South Africa for that matter.
Course tennis shouldn't be in Olympics either.

Tourism $$$ if your city gets to host the Trawls
Well when you realize they also considered team yoga then fishing doesn’t look so bad .
Fishing rules, Haha! I think you got em all there.
Fisting? Yes. Fishing.. no.

This is not a joke--IOC MUST SUBMIT!
As for me, this is great news. It would be time to create a separate fishing ritual within the Olympic Games. This whole art and demands separate skills on camping and management of a kayak such as on https://trykayak.com/best-kayak-for-camping/. They are of various kinds and need to be mastered with high skill in kayak management and timely catching fish.
Yes. It could be both a summer and winter event. Ice fishermen take their sport very seriously. It’s also a sport that doesn’t require gender divisions.
Holy Mackerel ! What a great idea.
The IAAF is reportedly going to mullet over.
So does dart throwing, horse shoe throwing (we already have curling for the Winter games) , bowling, shooting pool and playing dice should be.
I also think that this is not the best idea despite the fact that I love fishing. If we talk about fishing, I want to ask you what are your favorite fishing spots? I believe that soon the world will return to normal life and we will be able to travel again without any restrictions and forget about the pandemic. I would go to Portugal again, because fishing on the shores of the Atlantic ocean is a great pleasure. And the most memorable fishing I had was in the Amazon, it's a fisherman’s paradise. You can check out the review (I'll attach a link at the bottom) to learn more about it and see photos of these wonderful places. Look what kind of fish is found there, so I think that any fisherman dreams of such a fishing trip. https://missaopesca.com.br/pesca-na-amazonia
I agree with you that there are many great fishing spots in Portugal. And I dream of going to Russia, I've never been there and I've heard that there are many good fishermen there.
