Fishing problem

@kalaksed thank you for responding , I'm glad it isn't just me and I suppose it's an oversight. I wasn't surprised that the fish basket didn't count but also dissapointed at the same time.

It's a known issue, posted on AHQ here. The more people who chime in the better :)

I know I can easily go anywhere else to finish that part of the aspiration, but so far my fishermen/women are islanders, they don't leave the island. It feels "immersion" breaking for them to do so, and just doesn't feel right to me.

I'm surprised there are not more fishing spots in Sulani. I wish I could put one where I want it. What does the fish basket do?

@kalaksed I tried placing the trap in water and it would not stay there. I will try again. Thanks for your tips.

@Kathykins thank you for the link, I hit the me too button.
And you're right it takes something away from the island immersion when you need to go to a different world to complete a task that seems to have been made for the Island of Sulani. I'm glad it wasn't winter.

@kalaksed I figured out why placing my trap was not working - I had to place it on my lot. Duh. Waiting for fish and stuff. Thanks for the tips.

Yes, the 'Fish for an hour' whim is no longer fulfilling too.

@simstr0ng My sim has her fish basket near one of the fishing spots and catch fish there regularly. My sim does not live on the water front. Sometimes I catch nothing for a long time , maybe a sim week. Other times it will be full days in a row.

@loubyloulou I noticed that too . But the fish for 10 hours did count. :o

@simstr0ng I've not had any of my traps on my own lot the past week. My current family lives on the Admiral's Wreckage lot, the traps are all in the water near the fishing post there. I had some trouble placing the traps, don't know why, but the sim eventually succeded in placing the 4 traps I had.

@Frn0731 I've noticed if I forget to empty the traps for lets say 2 days, the fish will "escape" and I have to bait the traps again. Usually, when I empty/bait them every day, they are chock full of fish, treasure/trash.
