Squid Jigging Ground was written by Art Scammel, not Hank Snow, but Snow recorded and sang it.

There is a Tune about my Trouser Trout, and if you do not know it, come close, I'll let you hum a few bars.

Does this qualify as a song? Probably poetry instead.Old but good though.

There's a track by Hank Locklin called "We're gonna go fishing" - it charted in the early sixties pre-Beatles - country though, not folk -has Floyd Cramer on piano as they all did at that time.

Richard Shindell's Fishing is a good fishing song.

Richard Shindell - Fishing

That it has another and more sinister narrative too adds to it IMO.

Bill Joel's Downeaster Alexa is a great fishing song and has a "folk" interpretation too.

Downeaster Alexa - Phil Beer
