Indoor fishing

Indoor fishing is a recreational activity in which patrons fish or shrimp from man-made pools. Patrons typically pay per hour to use the pool; indoor fishing facilities provide equipment, such as fishing rods, and patrons keep whatever they catch. Pools are often separated by stock type, such as shrimp size, or species. The most common shrimp is the Malaysian freshwater prawn, with separate pools for fish species such as tilapia, carp, and catfish for a challenge.

Indoor fishing is a popular activity in parts of East Asia.

Some indoor fishing facilities give out prizes for catching certain fish.

Indoor fishing is enjoyed by many demographics. Some pools cater to older patrons as a post-work relaxation activity. Indoor fishing pools may also cater to children to educate and foster an interest of fish and fishing.
