There actually isn't a single type of fish known as the sardine. So technically you can't go fishing for sardines. "Sardine" is a nickname or generic term for any kind of small, saltwater fish that comes packaged in a flat can. There are more than twenty different small fish sold as sardines - everything from small herring to pilchards and anchovies.
