If not for food, yes. If the person fishing has no plans on using the fish as a food source and throws the catches back in the water, it's basically making a sport out of torture.
I don't think so. It's the same as eating meat, except you catch it yourself. So is eating meat animal abuse? I would say it's a bit unsettling when somebody catches a fish and then lets it go, the fish just suffers.
