Fish swimming area update

I think it would be great if when they do the big fix to fishing they told us they would, they also make it so fish can no longer swim under objects that we can't see under. Perfect example of this is in Mooshu. There's that big cow statue right in the middle of the circular pond at the bottom of the steps of the jade palace building. Fish swim under that all the time. They should be restricted from swimming under that since we can see it. however, in other areas of Mooshu, there's the bridges to get us over certain ponds, and those we can see under, so swimming under those should stay as is (as an example).

I don't see any need for this change. Have you ever gone fishing? Real fish don't conveniently stay out in the open and avoid underwater hiding places. We have spells to attract them to us. We have all the tools necessary.

if that pond existed, as shown in the game, the statue would be on the floor thus the fish couldnt swim under it. You'd be better off saying how the world was magical and the laws of physics dont apply rather than try to bring a real world example into it. A statue of that size, talking in the real world, would weigh tons, and flatten EVERYTHING under it.

It could very easily be built on pillars. Just because fish can swim out of sight doesn't mean the whole space underneath is empty.
