if you hitch your bass boat & trailer to the back of your SUV, drive to a lake somewhere, launch the boat, and actually put a hook in the water, do you catch something EVERY time? i didn't think so. while i personally don't like fishing (i don't have the patience for it), there's nothing wrong with the 'not every click works' method of fishing; if you want to catch all the fish at once, use a shotgun...

I personally prefer TNT, much faster and only requires one blow!

Oh I love your answer. Personally I find that fishing makes a break for me between harvesting and seeding. Like supertrucker said imagine yourself going fishing, take your boat out to the lake, the gulf or anywhere, relax, throw in your line and wait. If you want crabs and lobster, go to the shore and find them on the rocky sides of the sea strip, I have the boat and I get fish sometimes 9 at a time and that is good and I get them everytime I throw in the net. Patience is a virtue not everybody has, lol

You're making me wish I was out on the river bank or up at a mountain lake, fishing pole in hand, relaxing and just waiting for a steelhead or trout to bite -- and not minding the waiting since it's just so pleasant being there.
As for FT fishing, my revers, ponds and the seacoasts (which I use to simulate a lake and one of my rivers0 are mainly for decoration. Not having any of the seafood facilities, I just occasionally fish to pass the time while trees and crops finish harvesting or seeds finish planting. Only a few minutes at most, but it's a pleasant way to pass the time and I earn a few more coins at the MP selling the fish.

Glad that made you feel like you were someplace else than clicking for fish, lol
I am a deep sea fisher myself and there is nothing more relaxing that fishing, except when there is a darn swordfish that wants to get you into the water instead of you getting him/her out of the water, those babies can pull like an 18 wheeler. ;-)
