Right Click Spam while reeling in fish. Bug?
I have just noticed that if i spam tap right mouse... the fish comes in without a fight.
Im fishing in Oregon for Browns and i can reel in a trophy with out a fight this way.
Its almost as bad as the fishing turned around bug.

Is this intended? if so i think it should be tweaked

I suspect the devs are tweaking that feature in the upcomming fighting system.

I chuckled the first time i saw a fish pulling at the line like a dog playing tug of war with a rope in it's teeth. Now it's annoying.

I try to avoid using the right mb after a fish is hooked. I would like it more active then a slow draw it is now for setting the hook, then disable it completely till the line is clear.

Known bug, severely used by some "proficient" " tru hardcore" players

A fix is coming and we recommend not using it as the fish fights are going to be rough and right clicking will not help

yes, I also enjoy it more by not using the right mouse button; however, then you end up losing the fish for no reason because there is a hidden timer on it.

The reason right-click works so well is that it stops the line from releasing when the drag is on - which doesn't make sense. IRL if the drag is letting line out and you pull back, the drag just lets more out faster. In the game it locks the line somehow and yanks the fish toward you creating slack that you can reel in. So you just hammer the right mouse to keep generating slack. IRL this cannot happen without first increaseing the drag and this risking breaking the line.

A problem is that RMB is the only way to pull and keeping a eye on the fish no know where he go and follow him when he goes toward you and you dont have a 180/1 ratio.

would be cool to be able to move the head :)

This stuff does not really help to build a strong united community, maybe we can do better without?

This is wonderful news. Finally I get to put the 280+ m of line I have on my reel to use!

In order to fight a fish IRL you must raise your rod tip this is how you put pressure on the fish not with your reel. But I agree spamming the RMB just takes all the fight out of it.

Thank you for fixing this, it kind of ruined the fish fight as it is.
