A fishing business is a business that allows non-professionals to enjoy fishing without expecting any income from the catch, and collects fishing fees or charter fees. In this case, enjoying fishing is called recreational fishing, while making fishing your occupation is called professional fishing. In Japan, the number of people enjoying outdoor leisure activities has increased since the 1960s, and the number of anglers has increased accordingly. In addition to the traditional boat lodges and fishing boats, recreational fishing has also begun to take customers on board between fishing trips, supplying them with fish and shellfish caught with nets, and running guesthouses where the customers' catches are cooked and served to them. Local governments and fishing associations have also made efforts to attract tourists who enjoy fishing by improving fishing spots in their respective rivers, lakes, and coasts, and setting up fishing centers, in order to increase tourism revenue. Whale watching and dolphin watching have also become popular in various places. However, these tourist fisheries have also run into trouble due to conflicts of interest with professional fishermen over fishing regulations and fishing grounds.Furthermore, many problems have arisen, such as the destruction of the fishing grounds themselves, including waste such as fishing gear (hooks, fishing lines, etc.), empty cans and plastic bags, and water pollution caused by the excessive use of bait.

漁業による漁獲物の収入を期待せずに、漁業を職業としない一般人に釣りなどを楽しませ、入漁料あるいは傭船(ようせん)料を徴収して営む事業。この場合、釣りなどを楽しむことを遊漁(ゆうぎょ/ゆうりょう)といい、これに対してもっぱら漁業を職業とすることを職漁(しょくりょう)という。 日本では昭和40年代から、野外でレジャーを楽しむ人口が増え、それに伴って釣り人も急増した。遊漁は、従来からあった船宿や釣り船のほかに、職漁者が操業の合間に客を乗せて釣りをさせたり、網などで漁獲した魚貝類を供給したり、民宿を経営するなどして、客の漁獲物を調理して供するようになった。また、地方自治体や漁業組合なども、それぞれの地域の河川や湖沼および海岸の釣り場を整備したり、フィッシングセンターを設置したりして、釣りを楽しむ、いわゆる観光客を誘導して観光収入をあげる努力をしているところもある。さらにホエールウォッチング、イルカウォッチングなども各地で行われるようになった。 しかし、これらの観光漁業も、漁業規制や漁場をめぐって職漁者との利害が対立するなどトラブルが起こったりしている。さらに、釣り具(鉤(はり)、テグスなど)、空き缶やレジ袋などの廃棄物や、撒き餌(まきえ)(コマセ)の過剰投入による水質汚染など、漁場そのものを荒廃させてしまうなど多くの問題が生じている。 [吉原喜好] [参照項目] |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
