every time i explore in Three Houses, i've been going right for fishing first. really simple, but always satisfying to see EXCELLENT pop up at the end.

I have strong fond memories of playing SNESera fishing games like Super Black Bass as frequent rentals. That tension and excitement when you finally spot a huge shadow lurking in the reeds.

Super Black Bass was excellent. Always go up by the spillway of the dam.

Do those FFXIV rare fish have any special function or are they just for bragging rights?

aquariums as mentioned but also you can make them into prints that you can hang up in your house. cool stuff.

My #1 fishing experience was ffxi. Chilling on the boat, riding it back and forth, beating up pirates and hiding in the hold if the kraken spawned ftw. Still mad there was no fishing rod in breath of the wild though wtf Nintendo

The fishing in rear end Creed: You're a Viking is fun, I like how excited the character is whenever you equip the fishing rope thingy. For a while there was a fun bug where the fish's model didn't render once you hauled it in so the character would just hold up empty air like a mime.

The OP revved up a stream once for 5 minutes to catch a godly legendary fish and as soon as he caught it he said "Well, that's it." and closed the stream.

All the breath of fire games have fishing minigames and you can get some of the best loot from doing it. The first two are kinda lame but BOF3 has a really involved fishing game that’s a lot of fun

It's 2006. I am taking 276 yeti furs from the goodies hoard.
The actual fishing minigame (if you can even call it that) in WoW is pretty boring, but they did a cool thing a couple of expansions ago. In the Legion expansion, progression was tied to legendary weapons for each class that all had their own skill trees with unlockable abilities. Post-campaign, though, there was a really long convoluted secret quest that could unlock you a legendary fishing rod that functioned the same way, and it came with a bunch of cool features like letting you transform into a fish underwater, making you stealthier while fishing, and giving you a chance to fish up rare boot equipment:

If you've got a 3DS the GBC sequel is on the eshop for $5 and it's really cool, I played it again a few years ago. I'm just looking it up now though and apparently there's also a fan translation of a spinoff game set on a boat in the ocean, and it looks like the last game in the series, River King: Mystic Valley for DS got an official NA release but I never even knew it existed

edit: Looking it up the DS one sounds pretty bad compared to the gameboy games. I'm definitely going to try the pirate ship one though
