Rare fish cate rates

[zoro93]

While I understand rare fish are meant to be exactly that, the rate at which rare fish are caught is way too small. I believe the chance of hooking a rare fish needs to be largely increased or the amount of window of opportunities to attempt the fish needs to have a large increase. Only having anywhere between 1-20 minutes to catch a rare fish before it becomes unavailable for days possible weeks is just ridiculous, especially when you finally are able to attempt the fish it has a very low rate at even biting, and then an even lower chance at actually successfully hooking it. Let’s use myself and cinder surprise as an example. Looking at the schedule of upcoming window (I can only see up until the 8th of march). Cinder surprise has five more chances until and including the 13th of January, with only five minutes per attempt, or twenty-five minutes total fishing time in the next one and a half weeks. After which if I am unable to successfully catch this fish, I will be unable to attempt any future attempts available for about two months, possible longer depending on future windows of opportunities for said fish due to either being at work or asleep. This is causing the players to either re-organize work days or wake up in the middle of the night losing much needed sleep. This is extremely unhealthy for your players who wish to complete certain aspects of the game, as they feel there is no other choice without waiting potentially months at even the chance to attempt to catch just one of the many hundreds of rare fish in the game. This is also leading to players to become extremely frustrated with the game.

I appreciate your concern, but me and other fishers like the challenge and exclusivity.
