"Just Fishin'" is a song written by Casey Beathard, Monty Criswell, and Ed Hill and recorded by American country music artist Trace Adkins. It was released in March 2011 as the first single for his second album for Show Dog-Universal Music, Proud to Be Here. On November 30, 2011, the song received a Nomination in 54th Grammy Awards for Best Country Song.

"Just Fishin'" is a song about a father who is fishing with his daughter. The little daughter only worries about catching fish but father says that they are not "just fishin'" but also making memories. It is in B major with a main chord pattern of B-E-B and a vocal range of G♯3-C♯5.

Blake Boldt of Engine 145 gave the song a "thumbs up", praising the "sharp details" and "little snapshots of domestic bliss" in the lyrics. It received a four-out-of-five star rating from Matt Bjorke of Roughstock, who said that it "finds Trace comfortably back in father mode". Both Bjorke and Boldt compared the song favorably to Adkins' earlier singles "Then They Do" and "You're Gonna Miss This". Kevin John Coyne, reviewing the song for Country Universe, gave it a B rating, saying that he wished the song weren't "quite so heavy-handed about driving home the theme; a subtler approach could have made it a Strait-type classic."

The music video was directed by Trey Fanjoy and premiered in June 2011. It features Trace and his youngest daughter, Trinity.

"Just Fishin'" entered the Hot Country Songs charts at number 40 on the chart dated for the week ending April 9, 2011. It also debuted at number 98 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart for the week of June 18, 2011.
