If you are already in water, you can just use the 'fish' command. For fishing from a beach or the edge of water, you can specify a direction to fish where the water may be found. When you are fishing, you will have access to several commands that can influence fish behavior. You can: 'bob' to attract more interest from fish. May scare off any nibblers present. 'jiggle' to entice a nibbling fish to bite. May scare off other nibblers. 'troll' back and forth to entice fish to nibble, but may lower attraction. 'tug' to set a hook in a fish's mouth. 'bait' to lure fish using food. 'reel' in and recast or try to land a fish biting your hook. Unlike other gathering skills, you must 'reel' in your line when you have a fish on it. If you do not, the fish will get away. Having the 'fishing' skill greatly improves the effectiveness of the various fishing techniques, as well as the size of fish you can succesfully land. You can use the 'fish check' command when fishing to gauge what kind of interest fish have in your line or, if you have a fish on the line, roughly how large the fish might be. If you are not fishing, fish check will see if an area has been fished out or not. Gauging fish behavior and using an appropriate technique can speed up fishing substantially. Successfully landing a fish is dependent on your fishing skill, your strength and the size of the fish you are catching. A tug to set a hook in a fish's mouth greatly increases the chances of success, but takes extra time that can be crucial when attempting to land a very large fish. If a fish bites your line (not just nibbles), you must reel it in to catch it. The fish will eventually break free of your line if you do nothing. Experienced fishers have reported greater success when the light is dim, though fish weighing over a hundred pounds have been successfully reeled in at all hours of the day...
