The sun is shining, the temperatures are rising, and my smile is bright, so it must be Friday!
This week, let's talk about fishing, and the future. What sort of fish would you like to see and catch? What would it look like? Where would it be caught? We've dolphinately had a reel lot of fun with fishy puns around here, and now it's your turn!
I'm aware that there have been posts here and there about this subject - I just wanted to take this oppor-tuna-ty to continue the discussion - maybe we can look at things from a different angler.
Ok, I promise I'm done now! ::grin:: Have a wonderful weekend, Wizards!

Zafaria fishing is a must have. There is so many great water spots to fish in that world, Baobab, marketplace, stone town, drum jungle, even the elephant graveyard. Plus it would be great to have a bunch of puns, Zebra Fish, Lion Fish, Sea-Lion, Elephant Seal, Sea Monkey, etc. I think just African animal themed fish would just be cool, plus they could be much bigger and perhaps fill up some of those Large sized tanks that not many fish can fit inside.
Something sure seems fishy but its sure not these fish. I'd Love to see a Fish Stick fish those sometimes nasty or tasty treats I'd love to get a Fin err... I mean Hand on one, and a peanut Butter Jellyfish Much like like the Strawberry, grape, blackberry and marmalade Jelly fish a Peanutbutter Jellyfish would Sure stick to your mouth, also I want to see a Koi just like the mount (i've got nothing...) , Tuna Fish I've been in Marleybone lately and found a can of tuna so why not a Tuna can body with eyes and fins attached to the can? This fish is not exactly the the oldest but its so fresh its right from the can! while we have the Cat Fishes why not a Dog Fish after all it rains cats and dogs a Dog fish would so be a "Mans best Friend" Just need to remember not to place them in the same place Dogfish like chasing cats! We've fought the Kraken we even keep them as pet's Why not fish for one to keep in a tank that be shocking. If we could Fish in DragonSpyre what would be more suitible then fishing in the lava for Lava Squids, or Dragonfish.
I'd like to see a Salmon-the-box! It could be a salmon on a spring coming out of a jack-in-box, box lol. It could be caught in Crab Alley. It could be a rare fish that you can interact with! Hope you like my idea
Flying Fish, Batacuda and Sky Gar from the Pirate101 universe. The Flying fish would look just like a dark blue/black fish with big, wide flippers that double as wings. The Batacuda would be a grey Barracuda with long, thin bat-like wing-like flippers as well. The Sky Gar would just be a green recoloring of the Batacuda as well.
As for where they would be caught at, the Flying Fish would be caught on Triton Avenue, the Batacuda would be caught in Shoshun Village and then finally the Sky Gar would be caught in The Jade Palace near the Garden Dojo as well.
A big issue with the future of fishing I think is the limited nature of locations. There's no water in Marleybone or Dragonspyre, very little in most worlds really. Celestia and Avalon have a few above surface areas. Some more areas need to opened up to fishing. There are many areas that the land is too high above the water that otherwise could be opened up for it. Underwater areas could be used too, same spells, but underwater instead of a lure it could be a speargun shot.
I've been waiting for this topic! I've got a long list.
As I stated in a previous message, I currently feel there is a lack of feminine fish and I'd like to see more girl fish. (But that is just me) I want pretty fish in my tank!
I'm reserving my top 5 for fansite contests (because I'm hoping there are tanks this month) but the rest I will share here:
*cracks knuckles* Here Goes:
Real Fish: Dog Fish Pajama Cardinals (I can just see a cute teddy bear under it's little flipper) Rainbow Trout Lion Fish Clown Fish Parrot Fish Angel Fish Snapper (dress her like a flapper from the 20s) Nurse Shark Pilot Fish Boxfish Cherubfish Neon Tetra (you could bend them to look like a sign :D) Pumpkin Seed Star Fish Hermit Crab
Pop References: EELvil Knievel Indiana Bone Fish Yogi Bearacudda Octomom Tuna Turner Tuna Fey Barb Streisand Fin Diesel (but he's kinda in P101 already so eh) Sir Lancet-lot Lance Bass Hootie the Blowfish Jack the Kipper
Other Ideas: Geisha Guppy Bass Guitarist Panda Bearacudda (please please please) Koala Bearacudda Holy Mackerel "Merle"lin (like a Marlin) Minnow-Taur Pisces (like the constellation) Chicken of the Sea (hehehe) Bobber Shop Quartet Loan Shark Aquanaut Saw Herring (for Avalon to cut down Shrubberies! ;D)
Well first off, hello Professer Falmea! Second, I don't know what it should be called but maybe a fish that looks like Ambrose, or fish that look like the professers, including you Falmea! That's all!
P.S. Your hair looks like a flame. Is it really on fire or did you use magic hair gel? P.P.S. All fish mentioned above can be caught in Ravenwood!
Something that I think would work really good for fishing holes in Khrysalis is a fly fish. (fly fishing) It would of course be a cross between a fish and a housefly. Then you could make a pun on the pun with a butterfly fish.
here's one KI could have a blast with: LOX! Imagine a fishing being pulled out of the water that is a Combination Lox or a Padlox lol would be hilarious
I suggest making all fish that can be found in commons available in at least one other location. Commons is crowded enough without dragging in hordes of fishermen looking for exclusive fish that can't be caught anywhere else.
Clownfish: would have a little red ball strapped to his snout and a wig Rainbow Trout: multicolored stripes running down it's sides Pandacuda: Black and white, all cute and cuddly Tuna Fish: shaped like a can with glasses like Charlie the Tuna from the commercials Bet-ta Fish: dressed like a gambler with the billed hat and an ace up his fin Angelfish: White robe, wings, and a halo Devil Fish: Deep red with a spiked tail and horns Flatfish: aka a flounder with a 50's style hairpiece Discusfish: Shaped like a Frisbee StoryFish: Transparent fish, in the lines of a fish story, the one that got away finally gets caught CapeCod fish: A cod fish dressed in beach attire - male and female, Hawaiian shirt Electric Eel: radiates bolts of electricity Eccentric Eel: older looking Eel StinkyFish: half decomposed Snapper: smaller fish with huge teeth that's snaps its' jaws while it swims SpiralFish: swims in circles really fast Upsidedown Catfish: need I say more? Glowfish: florescent colors (same colors as its school) WhiskerFish: sports handlebar mustache Pooferfish: in your tank he slowly inflates until he "poofs" and disappears. only to reappear babyfish: wears a diaper Goldenfish: looks like solid gold Bullhead: head of a bull, body of a fish Chain Pickerel: body resembles a steel chain KingFish: wears a crown and dressed in a kings robe QueenFish" tiara and a queens' gown Sunfish: glowing orang aura around a yellow colored fish SickleFish: deaths sickle for fins Croaker: swims along, turns upside and floats upwards, froglike Channel Catfish: swims with a TV remote StirrupBass: Saddle and stirrups Merlin: dressed like a wizard Hummerhead: music notes drift from its mouth as it swims Neon Fish: neon sign along its sides "Eat at Joe's" Humpback: head of a camel with a hump in its' back Parrot Fish. birdhead, brightcolored, and long tailfeathers Rockfish: along the lines of stone colossus: fish made from rocks Paddlefish: oars for fins
Deep Sky fishing: fish off a cliff into a cloudbank below. Silhouettes of fish swimming in the clouds. Could use this as an offshoot of deep sea fishing and the species found in the open sea.
Zafaria would be a great place to have fish.. Maybe you can catch a lion fish or something like that. And also Avalon would be a great place as well, and Celestia has a lot of water so, there should be fishing there as well.
I recommend bass fish. A few places like Zafaria and definitely Celestia are a must fish place. I do want to say I would highly recommend larger tanks that allow more than one fish in the tanks. I just built myself a regular tank and I was pretty disappointed with the results.

Personally, I think it would be cool if there was a mermaid fish that looks like the siren pet in Wizard101.
