EM Site Feed March 2018 Fishing Contest

[UO News]

I have to admit, I didn’t think the Golden Tuna would draw as much interest as it did! Was it the fish itself, or the new trophies, or something else that suddenly has all Siege’s fishermen and women charging all over the ocean, complaining bitterly about giant koi?

There was also a very big Big Fish in the mailbox – so I’m glad you’ve remembered that part of the competition! I started these in July, so by the end of June, this year’s winner of The Big Fish contest will be declared!

I’m not going ot announce the winner of the Golden Tuna contest until the 1st of March – so you’ve got another day and a bit’s worth of fishing! Bait those rods! Cast those lines! Throw those greater explosion pots overboard! (If only that worked!)

Now, on to March. March marks the beginning on Spring for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, so what better fish to catch than the Spring Dragonfish! (not to mention that it looks like an orc was doing something unspeakable with a fish!)

Any caught between the 1st of March and the 31st of March are eligible! So, start cramming them into my mailbox! I really must get that thing fumigated one of these days!

120 minimum skill required? ;(
Do all coasts in Ilshenar spawn that fish?

I got around 300+ mibs last month but no tuna. Unlucky me.

Do all coasts in Ilshenar spawn that fish?

If you are using uoguide.com for reference, I believe the minimum skill listed there is the lowest on record for that fish. Might not be the actual minimum skill needed. 120 would certainly raise the odds, however, as well as using bait. I believe all fishable waters in Ilshenar (but I assume not dungeons there) would have a chance.
