My 1st fishing trip turned out to be a fun event, with a WG to boot :D

I stopped fishing after Day 1 (13 fishes) and it turned out to be a good decision in retro spec, I was able to enjoy the mini event at a leisurely pace. Bw7 (3-3) brought in a few fishes per week, also caught quite a few while doing medal run @6-5. Bd8 (1-5) was meh, but most surprisingly that daily sparkling runs (1-1) gave me 1 to 2 fishes every night!

Since I never used any fishing gear at 1-1 (and I never intentionally farm there), I wonder if there's a relation? It made me re-read the dev tweet re:fishing gears and here's another wild guess: what if the devs meant that we should try light+sonar first? If that doesn't work, THEN try something more violent (with a hidden cost)? I got fishes from 1-1 (no gear) every night, while 1-5 (sonar+DC) pretty much dried up in 2 days... *gasps*

Anyway, that was fun. To those still fighting, ganbatte! :D
