A bad day of fishing is better than a good day of work. ~Author Unknown
Nothing makes a fish bigger than almost being caught. ~Author Unknown
The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan

And, then, once in a while something happens which makes it all worth while….

I caught many, many, many Weeds and Goldfish before I caught that beauty.
It has an odd satisfaction unto itself.
I liked fishing in WoW before they tried to add gameplay to it, then it became just another part of the rock-paper-scissors class-oriented thing racing from pool to pool.
LOTRO’s fishing isn’t fantastic by any stretch, but I appreciate the ‘hobby’ near pure fluff nature of it.
Sooner or later, some MMO is going to get fishing done really well.
great quotes. I love real fishing, and zelda fishing. Most MMO fishing just doesn’t do it for me though
I have so many weeds. Too bad you can’t make a pie out of the things lol
Or use them in /smoke to make uber Gandalf boat “rings”
That was ten kinds of awesome. Thanks.
Bonedead: the game has always had pipe-weed that can be grown by players with no other mechanical purpose than various smoke rings. ;-}
Those quotes kinda sum up not only fishing but a lot of MMO gameplay, don’t they?
