Angling at the 1900 Summer Olympics

Angling was contested at 1900 Olympics in Paris. At a series of competitions in August, some 600 fisherman, of whom 40 were from 5 countries other than France, participated in 4 separate events. In later years the IOC deemed the events of the 1900 Olympics to be either official or unofficial. There was no such designation at the time of the Games.[1] No results have yet been discovered for these unofficial competitions.
