This idea has been rolling around my head for a couple of days now. I think that Rangers should have the ability to make live fish traps instead of having to resort to fishing. something like lobster traps or what the Indians used to use. not as clumsy as a fishing pole. and yes we should still have to have bait for it to work. questions? comments? flames?

Ranger, it's a lifestyle not a profession.

Fish nets are something a lot of us have talked about. Id love to have them

Taken your idea to a next step a little but haven fish den's and other sea animal den's. We could place like 6-7 at a time and every 15 mins we check them. IT could be like harvesters for rangers. But it would be all random. U could get 550-1000 or get nothing. A nice way for use to get fish meat and other kinds of water based animals if they add them to the game.

Also maybe for mounts we could hunt sea life. Mount pets can swim so we could go out in deep water and hunt sharks or something. Just a little idea.

My thoughts on a working gcw/rank and fun factor in this game.......

Well I like the idea of fish nets too, but what I was talking about was what Poser 2 was talking about. Something akin to fish harvesters. I guess the ideas I have aren't too fleshed out, but it's still good to post something IMHO. Gets the idea some momentum.

I like the idea of fish traps, fishing with a pole is kinda slow, especially when there's a master BE buddy waiting for the fish meat lol. What I would like to see, however, are boats! A small one, you could have 2 people, all the way up to house boats that are basically floating houses, and you could take a group out deep sea fishing. But that would mean the devs would have to add some serious sea creatures, maybe like on Final Fantasy IX, where you can fish right off the transport ferry, but you might have to fight what you catch! They could probably use some of the programming for speeders, and just make it like fishing is, where you have to be near water to use it. As for fishing traps, you would only be able to place them from a boat, and if you have enough lots remaining lol. I can't decide who should be able to use boats though, everybody, or just those with a direct interest in catching fish? Scout, Ranger, Creature Handler, Bio Engineer and maybe Doctor? As for the fish traps, I think it should just catch the fish, and you would still have to filet 'em. Hehehe. Oh and how about Rangers being able to make fishing jigs that work like weapon powerups? Takea Texas Rig and drop it on your pole lol. Maybe a spinner bait.

Ok guys take a look at the second post down, just wrote some ideas on fishing habbitats and fishnets.
