Well EQ, Legend of Zelda (the 1st one on the GB, I can't remember), Bass Master Classic and others come to mind...

lol you're right, my bad. BoF fishing --


Anyways, I've never done it myself but I think it's all about reading the feedback from using the fishing rod with the bait and performing the "correct" maneuver to reel in the fish. I couldn't find it in the manual and I doubt they have it in the gameholocron. You might want to search for people who enjoy SWG socializing and exploring using the social matchup thingy (can' really search, but you can change your prefs) b/c I know a lot of fishers who have that value in their profile. gl

There is a fairly comprehensive guide on the scout forum:

You can probably buy some bait somewhere ... or with 0001 Scout you can /forage your own. In any case, it's good to have Novice Scout if you wish to fillet the fish...
