What's Wrong With Not Fishing In March And April?

Fishing is a way to catch fish. As early as 50,000 years ago, ancient humans had already started fishing with bone hooks. The fishing activities recorded in our country appeared in the Book of Songs. Throughout history, people have regarded fishing as an outdoor activity that is beneficial to physical and mental health. Let’s take a look at what it is like not fishing in March and April!

1. Discussion on Cause

Not fishing in March and April is mainly to protect the breeding period of fish. Most parts of my country's crucian carp begin to enter the breeding period in March and carp begin to join the breeding period in April. At this time, if a female fish is caught, there will be thousands of fish "still in the belly". In order to protect the ecological environment, many people advocate not fishing in March and April. There are also sayings among the people that "don't catch birds in March and April," "don't catch March and no fishing in March."
