About Fishing

To make Fishing more interesting what do you think adding weight to fish?
Now fish are mainly (or only, idk) 1x1,2x1.....would be interesting adding rare fishes 1x3,1x4 and super rare 2x4,2x5...( a huge carp 2x5 )
Maybe adding also a little mini-game only for rare and super rare fishes where (like for combat) you have to time exactly 1-5 keys, but much quicker, an example could be a little arrow near the fishingpole meaning the direction where the fish is pushing (or something like that), if he is pushing RIGHT, you must be fast (some seconds, 2 or 3 maybe) to find the right number (1-5) that means pull in the opposite direction, pull LEFT in this case.
This mini-game only for rare and super rare fishes....so if you are not ready enough (or AFK) you'll take only common fishes as it is now (1x1,2x1).
Let me know what you think about...THX
P.S. the 5 keys will be Left,Right,Up,Down and when the fish go deep you have to pull him out.

Uhh.. You kinda explained fly fishing. And there are 2*3 and 1*3 fish. 2*5 seems a bit too much (maybe large fish you hunt with harpoons that attack ship, capsize it and attack you?)

I think that having fishes weight vary is a great idea. They wouldn't have to vary in inventory size, thats just muh realism. Fish could have a random weight in some range for the specific type. The weight would affect how many fillets you get from it.

Yeah exactly..a sort of fly fishing...could be nice. In the meanwhile if you don't like to fish, you can go afk and cacth only small fishes.
I never cacthed, untill now, 2x3 fishes (1x3 now i remember, catfish maybe)...but i guess they are always a different kind of fish...what i meant, with adding weight to fish, is there could be a small carp 1x1 as well as a very huge ( and rare) 2x5 carp ( or 2x4, or what is the best option).
And only with big and rare fishes starts that mini-game, moreover greater chances to break the line.

P.S. The harpoons thing is nice, but too ambitious, it will be nice if will ever be oceans and seas...
