If you're one of those anglers who exclaim that fishing is 'about taking a load off' and 'more about relaxation than the end-product', then you might want to try a lesser focused fishing potion. It removes the need for excuses and offers a chance of actually catching fish. Your experience grows and you will soon be gathering catches on the regular.
As an added bonus, with a higher fishing level, you can look down on all the other anglers who claim they fish 'to take a load off'.
