just been trying first time yesterday ..as well.. yes stamina weird..( i thought fishing was a relaxing thing :-)) LOLOL but having caught about 5 varieties saddened to see that ALL fish taste the same..!! just more or less quantity of same "raw fish" ..such an opportunity missed..like different types of mushrooms bringing different benefits... so really all i am motivated to do is catch one of each type for my trophy wall ..and just bulk farm perch..cos no real benefit (that i see at moment) spending resources/ time is a resource! on making special bait for more dangerous biomes.. for only a quantity bonus.

Second major point __having to give up the fishing line to play whack-a-mole with baddies, surely a middle click to plant the pole, whack-GD or whatever..then return to pole with fish still on line.. not lose two trollfish because a GD wanders near me.. and lose 2 bait!
