The act of pretending to be LGBTQ+ (usually online or in media) to gain popularity, clout, sympathy, or likes especially during Pride season or when it benefits their brand. Rainbow fishers throw out vague queer coded content, love songs with no pronouns, rainbow emojis, or ‘supportive’ selfies with zero real life advocacy, hoping to hook the queer community and reel in attention like it’s currency.
Celebs, influencers, attention-hungry NPCs, or straight people who want the aesthetic without the oppression.

She said Ugh, I mean… I said I was gay for the clicks, but now I actually like this guy and the LGBTQ crowd won’t let me evolve. Like, sorry I’m fluid with my brand.
I guess my whole ‘coming out’ post was just rainbow fishing now I like a guy and everyone’s mad I lied. Oops.

The same thing as a catfish, although this person will give you a handjob or handy even though they aren't who they say they are.
"Hey man, did that chick turn out to be a catfish?"
"At first yeah, but she turned out to be a handy fish so at least I got a handjob out of it."

If a girl, or group of girls, comment on how they've been "professional fishing", it means they've been masturbating.
"What've you been up to lately, GG?" I ask my friend in amusement.
"Professional fishing." She replies with no hesitation.

Something that you could could afford to do, but won't do because you think it's a waste of money. Going above and beyond what's necessary for a normal person, and paying a premium price for it.
John - "Did you hear that Will put in a koi pond and had the fish painted color coordinated to his decor?"
Bob - "That's the most literal example of "paying to paint the fish" I've ever heard."

The act of being in an engaging conversation and then immediately stopping to search your phone for a specific photo or video, either successfully or unsuccessfully, often times leading to a change of topic or the end of the conversation.
We were reminiscing about our time to Spain when we began sharing stories about drinking wine in La Rioja, then I killed the convo by unsuccessfully photo fishing for an embarrassing photo of us on the Camino.
