Fishing needs to be buffed

[CapsLockCat]

The way it currently is, fishing doesn't really hold much ground as a skill to level. It doesn't give you lots of player xp like wood cutting or mining, doesn't give a lot of money like farming or chemistry, isn't used to get many items in game such as metal working or crafting, not really a every day thing like cooking. It just doesn't have much of a place for anything compared to other trades. I think there are at least 3 different ways of making fishing at higher levels slightly more practical.
1. Higher level fishermen have a higher chance of catching anything. It is odd that a level 1 fisher man and a level 60 fisherman have the same odds of reeling in anything from their cast.
2. Higher level fishermen should have a slightly higher chance of catching higher end fish
3. Fish should be worth slightly more. Not a whole lot but, the time it takes to gather fish at the moment (even at high levels) isn't work the money you receive in return

I doubt anything will actually come from this but hey, its out there now.

I have read on the forum that fishing is going to be revamped in the coming patches so i hope many of the issues you have raised will be fixed.

The fishing system is being completely revamped in the next major update. It'll be entirely different and worth your time.

I can confirm with Wrights statement, I have seen the new revamped update version and it is completely changing.

Thanks for letting me know, sorry I didn't read that before making this. I just made the account for 1 post. Good to know they are working on it. Best of luck
