Writer's Wednesday XXV

Greetings ladies and gents.

This week we are taking (an apparently lazy) look at fishing. In the upcoming MMO fishing will be its own skill set.
It will be useful for Cooking to a greater degree then our longtime players may be used to. In addition to fishing for food, other items may be found this way. There are a small variety of tools to start with as well as a small variety of available prey. Do not despair fishermen and women of the world, your practiced skill is more then a 'harvesting' skill for which to feed the mechanics and economy.

Just as wood cutters have lore unique to them so too will our fishermen and women have access to lore of their own. What follows is a sampling of that which pertains to fishing to give an idea or two what might lay ahead.

Bay Bass- /A streamlined silver fish over a King's Foot long with longitudinal strips running head to tail, and strongly desired by cooks./

Shimmering Fish Scale- /A fingernail-sized silvery fish scale edged in red./

Fishing Spear- /A hickory branch stripped of bark, smoothed, and whittled to a fine point at one end with barbs whittled below the point to snag fish./

Segmented Oak Pole- /A segmented fishing pole of golden oak./

Tall Fishing Waders- /Thigh-high smooth cloth boots that repel water./

Thank you all again for looking in on this edition. Please return again next week for some more offering from the team!
