Gracias Barbara
disagree Monica Colangelo : you may have done lots of fishing and not have caught one fish, while "pesqué mucho" means that you caught a lot of fish

no se que pensarán otros, pero que yo sepa, "pesqué mucho" no quiere decir que cogí muchos peces, solo que pasé tiempo dedicado a la pesca

Peer comment(s):

agree Sandra Cifuentes Dowling : No me dedico a la pesca deportiva, pero me imagino que entre ellos hablarán de "ir a pescar en verano". Me suena más natural que directamente "pescar". Además "pesqué mucho" parece tener que ver con la cantidad de peces por pesca, y no creo que sea eso.

ME DEDIQUE MUCHO A LA PESCA ESTE VERANO

just another option
Peer comment(s):

agree Monica Colangelo : Definitely. "Pesqué mucho" means I caught loads of fish while "I did lots of fishing" does not imply you caught a single fish
