@macbuck1977 Does this happen in Sunset Valley as well? You could save an existing sim with fishing skill to the bin to find out. Do you use other mods aside from MasterController and Overwatch, and does removing them help? What patch level does your game have? You can see it in the lower left corner of the launcher, among other places.
I've never seen this problem myself, so I'm curious.
