Incredibly Slow
Hrm... I started fishing yesterday for as a level 0 for moat carp. I caught about 80 of them before I advanced to level 1 o.O! Wondering if I'm doing something wrong or is this insanely slow leveling supposed to be? On the brightside I now have a lot of moat carp ;P. I'd really like to advance though.

Re: Incredibly Slow
Check out this Website to get your answer as to what you are doing wrong. I'm not a fisher so I could begin to explain from my experiences but this website can help.

Re: Incredibly Slow
Yes, it really is that slow. If it makes you feel any better, this is actually much faster than it used to be.

I find that with this game the more patient you are the better you will notice it gets. You are not catching any more or less fish because you are a low level, it's only the speed and the kind of fish you can catch. Honestly as you start to skill up it gets faster and faster. If you'll notice this is like just about any other thing in the game. It gets better as you get to later levels. For instance when I started trying to do Marksmanship I barely got any skillups at all until it started hitting and the more it hit the more skillups I got. Can any one confirm this suspicion?

Notice: If I ask any thing stupid or it seems like I haven't done any research it's because I'm at work bored. Also while at work I can't access sites such as Allakazham or Somepage.
