    After seeing AdmiralD's report I thought I'd do one to. This is a report of the fishing income I got after 1 hour of finishing, after the new changes Andrew implemented recently.

    To keep things consistent I will use the price points AdmiralD used if it doesn't have a sell hand price.

    Stats:
    Fishing level: 1007
    Fishing rod: Star rod (No mending)
    Auto Erep: Yes
    Multitasking: No, Just listened to some music but wasn't watching anything while fishing.
    Method of fishing: Tower fishing. The crazy new looking one.
    [​IMG]
    Times Anti-cheat kicked me: 0 (Thank you Andrew!!)

    Exp: 10,035 (At 1$ per) = $10,035

    Raw Fish: 282 (At 20$ each) = $5,640
    Raw Salmon: 114 (At 30$ each) = $3,420
    Puffer Fish: 49 (At 40$ each) = $1,960
    Clown Fish: 6 (At 50$ each) = $300

    Ender Pearl: 10 (At 3$ each) $30
    Ghast Tear: 30 (At 10$ each) $300
    Total for 'Other' items only: $414.50

    Grand Total for 1 hour of fishing: $21,810

    Thoughts/comments: ...I didn't realize how big a chunk exp was of the fishing profit. Now I know. Definitely don't put mending on star rods.

    Stats:
    Fishing Level: 1010
    Fishing Rod: Star rod no mending
    Auto Erep: Yes
    Multitasking: No, just listening to music
    Method of fishing: Natural pond
    Times Anti-Cheat kicked me: 0

    Puffer Fish: 38 (At 40$ each) = $1,520

    Ghast Tear: 35 (At 10$ each) $350
    Total for 'Other' Only: $437.25

    Grand Total for 1 hour of fishing: $20,454

    Thoughts/Comments: I don't really notice a big difference between towers and ponds. Other than Ponds are more frustrating for me as the bobber hits the fish I reel in some times and sends them off into Narnia.

    For anyone who says fish needs to increase in price, they should look at this. With exp, fishing is one of the best methods of grinding

    And also possibly the only grinding method that can be directly effected by the exp player market.

    Wow, almost twice per hour than what I earned... guessing it may be due to your mcmmo level?
    This is what makes it so very difficult for the server to balance prices.
    Without the junk I went from about 8-9k per hour to 11k per hour, but am worried now that I will be nerfed back to 8k due to the exp alone :D

    Well theres a bit of a risk in exp making up so much of the profit too. If the market tanks and exp drops so will the star rod profits. Melons don't have that risk, tree farming doesn't. Pumpkin farming doesn't. Mining would be effected a bit but I think the star rod is the most reliant on the player market than the other farming tools. Though who knows, how many people have high fishing levels and fish regularly? We shall see what happens :)

    Higher level fishing makes it so fish, as a food, restores more hunger than it otherwise would.
    It allows you a greater 'shake' chance to get loot, or heads from some mobs, off both passive and hostile mobs.
    There is a magic hunter thing, but so far the enchants you get are... of "indeterminate usefulness" to quote Kadala.
    And, it allows for the fishing up of ender pearls, ghast tears, blaze rods, lapis, iron ingots and gold ingots.
    No other item drops, besides the iron stuff, are currently enabled.

    Just added A pond test I did! To help find the fishing average Ill be repeating some of these tests and recording them here still. Everything will be nicely kept in spoilers though so the post doesn't become massive.

    Yes, fishing in a river or ocean biome should increase your catch rate (I think, can't really trust a nub)

    Per McMMO:
    Master Angler
    As of the 1.7 update, Master Angler is unlocked at level 125 (by default) and allows you to receive 2 different multipliers for your bite chance. By default your bite chance is 0.2% per tick. There are 20 ticks per second, but due to lag, ticks don't happen uniformly, and on laggier servers, one may have a harder time catching fish. You can multiply your bite chance by 2 by default by either being in a river or ocean biome, or being in a boat. These do stack, and your bite chance can go up to 0.8% because your bite chance was doubled twice. With rain, you can increase your bite chance even more.

    However, this is not active on ECC... or, at least it doesn't show when you check /fishing

    KMax - have you had a chance to take an hour for statistics? I see nothing that explains the vast difference in XP between Strong and myself.
    Hoping that you, Mission, or Lady will contribute some ideas as that seems to be the largest difference in our numbers.

    I haven't knuckled down and done nitty gritty numbers. I'll give that a try either tonight or tomorrow.
    I'll see if I have my max rod, too, to compare that vs the star rod.
