Fishing is a sport that’s both relaxing and challenging; these angling innovations in the slideshow below reflect that duality nicely. On the relaxing side, there are fishing-themed chess sets and chic fishing huts; on the challenging side, there’s a feature about extreme shark fishing. For fashion fiends, there are apparel collections, couture fishing rods and fishing lure jewelry aplenty.
What are you waiting for? Cast out your line and heck out these fishing-inspired innovations over a cold brew while you wait for a bite.
