When you're ready, I'll be out on the cliffs casting away. I don't plan on doing anything until I have a good 48 hours of fishing under my belt again.

I also may or may not be planning on The World's Most Boring Streaming Channel <.< >.>

Omg I can see it now. Fishercat podcast featuring the latest in the world of rod-envy and anime schoolgirls.

Haha, thanks Zets. I was thinking more just me fishing and talking to whoever wanted to talk. I have a pretty sexy voice, if I do say so myself.



Maybe some anime schoolgirls.

Updated the OP. This has actually ruined my whole day.

Ah, the "Fisher" section of the forums, the most distant Siberian gulag of them all.

Terribly disappointing news. Lowest priority, least desire to communicate.

"Please look forward to it!"

Sigh. I guess I will have to move onto other DoH/DoL classes. :(

Stream pooped out during the FSH question but...they didn't say anything new at all from what I heard. Weather, Wind Speed, whatthefuckever. Unless I missed something the only thing Y seemed to care about emphasizing was that this would hinder RMTs...

gee...thanks

Seems like they are moving the focus away from the economy like we thought.

They want fishing to be just a relaxing activity apparently.

could someone please forward this link to Yoshi?

Oh no! I immediately thought of Fishing Representative LL Coram when I heard the news, straight from the Yoshi-P's translated mouth. To this news I say:


NOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

D: I really hope, despite it all, that fishing will be viable and entertaining, if "relaxing". If fish are a recipe in anything, then we know we will have a market to sell to, we can say that much (right????).

Fishing RIGHTs....FISHING RIGHTS...I TRICK UNSUSPECTING SEA CREATURES ONTO A HOOK OR BOB FOR LATER CONSUMPTION OR TRADE....AND I AM PROUD!!!! Long live the Water Rogues! YEAH!!!! 'Til Ichthyoids Swallow All!

(This Wikipedia link has some interesting details on fish and its value in society throughout the ages: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish if anyone is interested).
