What kind of fish would you catch?

[Grafikal]

Hey, I'm looking to improve my fishing event system with some new fish. What fish would you expect to fish in an RPG?

I'm looking for real fish.

As of now the categories of fish in the system are:

Shore Fish
River Fish
Sea Fish
Ocean Fish
Big Ocean Fish

This is the list of fish that are going to be included into my newest event system:

Shore Fish: Algae -> Shore Rocks -> Crayfish -> Minoes
River Fish: Pondweed -> Bass -> Trout -> Catfish
Sea Fish: Seaweed -> Tuna -> Mackerel -> Snapper -> Grouper -> Crab -> Lobster
Ocean Fish: Kelp -> Stingray -> Mantaray -> Marlin -> Leopard Shark
Big Ocean Fish(Mammals): Narwhal -> Whale Shark -> Blue Whale -> Killer Whale

Giant Fish or some out of the ordinary.
Examples - RockFish,GiantKingFish,Rubyfish. You know something strange unless your talking about real fish, I'd guess...A bass or swordfish.

[Revo]

Honestly, I'd say go for normal fish or variations on normal fish. Nothing really out there.

Yeah, I'm going for more of an actual fish. These are the categories of fish of which the system contains:

Shore Fish
River Fish
Sea Fish
Ocean Fish



Let me know if anyone can think of any fish for these categories. At the moment this is what I've got for each category:

Shore: Minoes
River: Bass -> Salmon -> Catfish
Sea: Lobsters
Ocean: Stingray -> Shark
Big Ocean Fish(Mammals): Whale
I like the swordfish idea. I'll post what I've accumulated in my first post.

Use real but interesting fishes, like Manta Rays, Octopus, Lionfish, etc.

I did a bit of research and came up with a final list of fish and things that are going to be catchable in the system. [Updated first post]

Big Ocean Fish(Mammals): Narwhal

Fuck


Yes.

That's so awesome.
Is there any purpose to the vegetation that is catchable though? Or is it simply a bad thing you can catch X% of the time?

[Esmeralda]

Oh my god, make it so you can catch a whale with a normal fishing rod

that would be so awesome

Lol. Well, the system was originally designed for my own game and I want my game to be top notch and not half assed. So everything I have planned for it kind of intertwines with some of the stuff I make here. For instance, there's alchemy in my game. The weeds and such are partially for that. So to advance in some areas you'll need to level your fishing skill to level other skills. Also the weeds do give less EXP and are caught at a retarded %. But that part is for other player's that want to use the system.

HAHA that would be almost too awesome and completely inconsistent. Lol.
