    Fisherman adjustments?

    Here are some ideas I have for adjustments to the Fisherman class. It's a fun class to play and there is a lot going on for it, but it still needs some overall adjustments.

    1) Give it a fishing net as an offhand tool. (For vanity if nothing else)

    2) Have GP abilities which increase gather rate (2 fish per line cast)

    3) Have GP abilities which increase HQ rate (500GP for 100% guaranteed HQ on next cast, 250 GP for 25% increase chance to gather HQ, etc.)

    4) Give Fisherman a way to show off their best records to others. I'm assuming this would best be done via personal housing...but any way would be great.

    5) As it stands, the majority of fish we gather aren't used for anything. I would like to see some more things created using fish. Fishbone jewelry, more food, etc. Perhaps we can craft "oils" using various fish and these oils can be applied to other crafted items?

    Just some fish for thought...

    EDIT - Also, can we have all bait put into ONE item slot in our inventory? A tacklebox would be fantastic. You could even make it expensive like 100,000k or 900 philo or something. All this bait just takes up so much inventory space when it really shouldnt... lol.

    I want to have an aquarium furniture for housing... so we can put some of the fish caught there... having multiple sizes/enviroments *SAAAANDFISHING!* and stuff each allowing for certain fishes to be placed in each... and make the fish animated inside there of course... doesnt even need to be that fancy.. just need to be pretty XD

    Can't remember where, but I recall Yoshi saying he didn't want fishing to effect the economy and it should be a "relaxing" thing.

    Hell, just this would be nice. Give us SOMETHING to do with GP's.

    And for an offhand I'd rather have a tacklebox that, rather than giving any stat bonuses, provides an inventory box that will only hold bait and lures, increasing the box size based on the ilvl.

    My biggest wish, Add a line of code to stop the 'please move' message if the last fish we caught is moochable.

    Seems like an arbitrary decision to me. And for something that shouldn't be affecting the economy, sharks, sardines, pike, and coral sure move things around a lot.

    Youch. Haven't had that one happen to me, but I'm certain my reaction would be, um, less than positive.

    I always thought a spear offhand might work, though they would need to add in speared types of fish for that. Could probably have carpenter's make tackleboxes if they decided to go with that for offhand or whatever.

    I made a suggestion for a Zelda OOT like fishing lake with weight leaderboards and rewards back on the suggestion board. But that fishing tackle box is an amazing idea. My inventory would also appreciate this.
