Fishing... we need to talk.

[Feyona]

I am haveing problems catching red and blue script since the new patch. Previously I could catch 3 to 5 thunderbolt eels with no problem now i get one if im lucky. Tiny axolotl I have been 3 times and got one. When fishing illuminati perch i had to fish for an hour befor i got one. I have a friend who has red script fishing rod and is having the same trouble. Is anyone else finding that the better gear they have the worse the fishing gets? I wondered of there was a bug or something I also just got through 2 bladed jigs in half an hour.

it's just all RNG. i am wearing full i180 set with i170 belt and don't have any problems. at least not more than usual xD the chance to lose the bait (only the crafted ones) is higher if you lose the fish. and you lose the fish more often if you use patience but not the right hookset... so yeah, to save baits be careful with patience ^^/ to save GP you should only try to catch the fish you really want. so watch the animations when the fish bites and only hook the fish if he has the animation you are looking for. otherwise let them eat the bait and don't hook it.
