Well I just went through about 4 stacks of lugworms at the Summerford spot and now I'm locked out, does anybody have any idea how long that lasts?

I think it's just there to discourage bot fishing by making it a bit more difficult to do that way.

Yea that's what I figured but I didn't think it had such an easy work around.

The only place this is a big problem is the Exploratory Fishing Hole in Coerthas (because it's so small). The workaround there is to fish from maximum distance and, if you get the message (or ever few throws) move to the maximum distance spot 120 degrees around the hole. Like, imagine a triangle around the hole with each vertex the max distance away where you can still fish. Fish at those points. It seems to look at distance from where YOU were when you "overfished," not the distance from where your theoretical hook would have hit the water.
