A fisher,[1] also known as an angler,[2] fisherman, or a fisherfolk,[3] was an individual or droid[2] who engaged in fishing as their occupation[4] or primary role within their culture. On the planet Ahch-To, the male Lanai—known as Visitors—spent most days of each month catching fish in the waters covering the planet.[5] Many businesses in Scaparus Port on Arkanis specifically served the local fisherfolk.[6] Peka community inhabitants on Batuu often worked as farmers or fishermen.[4] A Keredian called Dewi Pamular worked alongside an alien called Freedi Pamular as a fisher[7] in 5 BBY,[8] visiting the Imperial prison moon[9] Narkina 5 with their TUG-b13 to fish for squigglies. They, however, found that the waters were polluted with waste from the moon's Prison Complex, which greatly diminished squiggly populations.[7]

Coronet City on Corellia had longstanding fish markets, some of which were operated across multiple generations of a single family, where fishmongers sold species of fish from that planet's oceans.[10] Corellian fishers utilized harpoons.[1]
