It's pretty good early-game.

Fishing scales poorly into the late game, and lure fishing is not good enough relative cast fishing. Aware.

fishing is mostly pointless once you start a farm up and get your foraging around 30 the only reason why I ever fished was for fish to raise my intelligence when you're able to kill foxes and catch squirrels and pick blueberries I don't see a reason to fish anymore

Wait how is lure fishing deficient to cast fishing? Once you figure out the optimum catching method of certain fish, you can be "swimming" in them. Bulk sturgeon and pike early game was great. Cast is better for people who haven't put this time into the system and just need a fish for a quest, but otherwise it's just that fish q doesn't somehow scale that is the general problem.

INT and PSY were the two big ones in legacy. If you knew how to reliably catch a large quantity of eels, you were in demand by crafters everywhere. Well, mostly jewelers.
