You can kill two birds with one stone with fishing. Try to catch fish while relaxing and being out in nature.

This is actually a pretty good summary of why I always hated fishing.

For starters, sitting around and hoping to catch something isn't as enjoyable as actually accomplishing something for me. And also, nature is horrible in every way and should be destroyed.

If it was a hobby where you could do it inside a pest-free climate-controlled room inside, where the fish themselves were little hygienic robots with no gunk or mess, and you were guaranteed to catch a fish every few minutes, I'd probably have been much more interested in it.

Come to think of it, this might be why I'm perfectly fine with most fishing minigames in video games (and I've been doing quite a bit of it in Stardew Valley). It eliminates most of the things I actually dislike about fishing.
