    Sims that do not have the Fishing Skill, or have not been Fishing at all, will not get notifications about identifying Fish. THEY WERE FISHING WITH THEIR MINDS.

    Fixed in Patch 1.69.57/ 1.35

    If you're still experiencing this issue, please create a new thread.

@maedhroswhyI get this all the time it's super annoying. I am getting it for sims I don't even recognize. I get it when sim x tells sim y about a new bait or what ever, and they aren't in my household so it's really annoying. I've had it for a long time, well before island living and mine come from all NPCs. Some have no fishing skill some do. I get it for other things sims can share secrets of as well.
