Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this article is to describe the word creation processes used in fishing jargon, French and Polish, studied from texts available online. Our research will focus on the analysis of the name formation processes of fishing techniques and tools. We adopt the typology of lexicogenic matrices which was proposed by J-F. Sablayrolles (2020). The great advantage of the Sablayrolles typology is that it makes it possible to organize various lexical creation processes while emphasizing that these have mixed characteristics (i.e. morpho-semantic, syntaxico-semantic, morphological, pragmatic-semantic, including borrowed words). Our perspective is general in the sense that we will find in our corpus all kinds of units: single and compound words, truncated words and acronyms, with different expressiveness and intensity of use. This study shows that the fishing jargon is not just a technolecte; its terminology plays an important role in the understanding of contexts and specialized texts, of course, but it allows people who use it to keep interpersonal relationships within the community
