"Where is Chris Pawneill?"
"He gone fishin' man."
Gives fishing faster early skill gains, smoother mid-game, and a strong high-skill bonus including double yield at level 20, also gives your pawns a tiny bit of recreation while fishing, to make it feel like what it should be imo: a relaxing, mildly rewarding pastime that productive pawns sneak away to do when nobody’s watching. It won’t refill their bar or anything, but over a relaxed afternoon they’ll come back happier than before.
NOTE: The recreation arrow still points down due to vanilla logic, but if you speed to 3x or 4x, you should see the bar climbing.
0–5 Animals: ~26–35% faster fishing
5–10 Animals: ~35–50% faster
10–15 Animals: ~50–65% faster
15–20 Animals: ~65–75% faster with a double yield bonust at lv 20 to reward your pawn's fishin' spirit.
