Hey, Lemmy! Is there a fishing community here anywhere? (beehaw.org)

And if not, is there enough interest in fishing to create a community? I've looked around a bit and haven't found any fishing threads. I'd have no clue as to how to go about setting up a community, much less find time to moderate something like that. But I'd really like a place to discuss fishing in different parts of the U.S. and around the world.

!fishing@lemmy.world looks like the biggest per https://lemmyverse.net/communities?query=fishing, but there's also not many recent posts.

Thank you!

I didn't realize that I wouldn't see that community from my BeeHaw account.. So I signed into LemmyWorld and, there we go..

I still don't have the federated universe thing down.

You're my dang hero of the dang day!

And, you're right, it doesn't seem all that active of a community, but hopefully growth will come with time. You just added one to their numbers, so it'll seep in and take root after a while.

Thanks, again.
