I did the same thing (PHP using reCAPTCHA) on my site, and it has helped quite a bit.

Though, I do still get the occasional fishing/spam request, it's very rare now.

Unless you're a high profile site, putting up a CAPTCHA does a good
job of stopping this (on high profile sites, people are actually
paying others to figure out their CAPTCHA's). I used to get hundreds
of these a day from my personal site and since I put a CAPTCHA in it
(did that last year some time), I've gotten zero. I have a PHP
example using reCAPTCHA if anyone is interested.
