Hooks getting too much time stuck in water places... Very annoying !

[Chaka (FR)]

Hello, i am actually fishing at bear lake for 1 or 2 days and it is at least the 4rd or 5rd time my hook when fishing float gets stuck in water lilies.
It becomes very very annoying especially it is almost impossible to free the hook.
(i never succeeded for my case and lost one)

Right when i wrote this, my bottom line is also stuck in the weeds... Unbearable !!!

When you get snagged just exit and restart your game, yes very annoying sometimes 🤔

That's what i do ofc but tired to quit and restart game... And that takes time.

The interesting part is that you can take your fishing rod out and walk right through bushes and plants without ever getting snagged on anything.
When you are fighting with a big fish and walk around to follow the fish, you can even move the rod through trees and anything else that is standing in your way.

As soon as you go near water lilies, snag!

Amazing realistic fishing simulator, right?

Indeed it would be cool if you can get by hand your hook trapped using fisherman boots but it's impossible...

none of these socalled simulators are realistic, far form it.

the only solution i could think of is to introduce a 'De-Snagging' skill which you can grind/improve everytime you get snagged. It would have to work every time (the variation being that it may longer or more attempts and maybe a TINY chance of minimal gear wear)
Otherwise quit + restart will always be the choice players make (once they know)
