Fishing Net & Tacklebox

[Angellos]

Now I know that a tacklebox may seem a little redundant since SE was kind enough to put in the saltwater, freshwater and versatile lures but - the problem is that you can't accurately catch big fish using those items. So if you're after a specific fish, or a big/legendary fish, you have to use the appropriate bait for that fish still.

So I am here to ask, on behalf of all fishermen: For us to be given a tacklebox that will hold all of our bait - and a Net/live basket that will hold all of our fish. Fishing takes up SO much room in the inventory (Mix that with all the bait for fishing and YIKES!)

I mean I would love to see us be given a gathering bag in general: That holds all gathering materials be it botany, fishing or mining. (Also all of the fangs and blood and what not that you get from mob/dungeon drops.)

That would be... SO helpful. Please SE, show us mercy. ♥

Had you bothered to search this topic you would have found dozens of these threads.

Squenix has been saying no since 2.0. This is not going to change.

Two words: Chocobo saddlebag.

Unfortunately, Yoshi P has said no to tackleboxes already and given no indication he's going to change his mind.

The game currently has more bait types than saddlebag slots.

Sure, and usually you are fishing for at most 2 or 3 specific fish at any given time. So you only need those 2 or 3 baits(if they dont share). Any bait you can buy from a vendor? Get rid of it, just pick them up if/when you need them. Im not saying bait couldnt be handled better by the game, but until it is we can certainly try to be smarter about it as players.

Less so the saddlebags specifically, but overall, the idea of a "dedicated FSH inventory" is replaced with the idea of more general purpose inventory.

Why have a special inventory for just bait when they could just spend the same time/resources to give us more room for anything.

The actual number of lures and bait required for the Big Fish of 2.x will all fit into that saddlebag with lots of room to spare. I haven't seen any need to keep the 3.x, 4.x or 5.x baits and lures there.

Every bait you can find useful, meaning bait for ARR swimsuit fish / ninja beta / Titanic Sawfish, any bait for uncaught big fish, and every 5.x bait is going to be one page or less.
