Some might ask: what is the difference between fishing in the Old World and Aeternum?\n\nWell, first of all the fish are more abundant here in Aeternum for the island's regenerative properties. Two to more than twenty fishers can be in the same spot and still find gainful fishing.\n\nSecondly, the fish here have an incredible amount of biodiversity. Fish found in salt waters around the world can be found here, and the same applies to fresh water fish.\n\nFinally, fishing in Aeternum is different because it's just more exciting! Setting up a cast and hearing the bushes behind you rustle with the movement of an animal... Ah, the adrenaline rush is unmatched on this dangerous island.\n\nThis would make a good introduction for my fishing book.

Aeternum's Specialties

Old World Fishing

There is one fish so rare in Everfall that even I have not seen fin nor gill of it. The legendary Mandje Mandje is said to look like a little man with webbed feet and hands, but that cannot be so. One day I will catch it and prove the ridiculous rumors wrong, but that day is not today.\n\nDo you think it's real, Machera? You would know best.

Is there any better feeling than fishing under starlight?\n\nBesides being a relaxing way to spend your evenings on Aeternum, night fishing offers opportunities for fish that wouldn't normally be seen during the daytime. Some fish hide away until the moon is out, and they have the cover of darkness. It's not impossible for these fish to be seen when the sun is up but some fish prefer the cloak of night.

Fishing Under Starlight

Night Fishing

Some fishers want to blame the pole when they go home empty-handed, but that's about the poorest excuse I ever heard. I know better than that.\n\nThe pole is important, yes, and a superior one can be engineered in any settlement with the proper station upgrades, but it's not everything. True fishing comes from the heart. I was born with a fishing rod in my hands, and while I've preferred some over others, the size and rarity of fish that I catch come more from a successfully-aimed cast than an expensively-crafted pole. The crafted poles will last you longer and get you higher quality fish though, I'll give you that.
