Fishing bait

[alexxx]

Where would the community like to see this go? I have several ideas for fishing that I and the team have been discussing, but I'd like more feedback.
The possibilities include:
- More bait varieties and types, all produced by the players, with different processes involved (not all gathering)
- More types of fish, but we'd have to nerf market foods to make people bother
- A fishing NPC as a place to sell fish cheap in case no-one buys - I'm on the fence about this. It means that there's a legal form of 'contraband', but I'd rather this entire update by 100% player-driven (though this isn't possible with the current food availability)
- Rods getting damaged and requiring repair, and upgraded rods
- An entity, spawned similar to contraband, that the players can use to do fishing-related crafting on (rods, bait, etc.)
- Other fishing tools, such as lobster cages.

Having different fish, some give more food than others, some have dodgy effects etc.
On top of that, if that chef stove update thing was added you could grill the fish too, etc.
I'd think its best to look through old suggestions until you find something that wobbles your boat.

On the note of these updates, I demand we get a grass cutter and we can cut the grass and turn it into hay, then we need a forklift truck to put it on a trailer and on top of that we need a tractor to pull the trailer. Pinky.
Now, wouldn't you love to drive around in a tractor with hay bales on your trailer?
