“fish name”ング Does this pattern have a name or non-fishing applications?

Being a frequent beach fisher here in Japan I've come a across a good bit of slang and fishing related vocab. I find this one pattern quite interesting and nobody I talked to could really explain it.

So if you are fishing for メバル that's called メバリング

If you are fishing for アジ it's アジング

Etc etc

What is this pattern called? Where did it come from? Is it used for anything else?
