I would assume that a player that has been on the forums here for almost 4 years would have seen the hundreds, if not thousands, of posts discussing just this. The search bar can be your friend :p
If you don't like the junk...err treasure, simply set your inventory to only collect fish... and instant increase in profit! ;)

 

Yes please. Everything that is useful to fish out is removed, and everything else is just junk

The problem isn't that you collect it, it's that the item replaces the fish.

And honestly yeah, every time I see a fishing suggestion, I roll my eyes and laugh. One can only dream, though...

 

+1 The current treasure system is broken. Only trash is ever fished up. Players are penalized instead of rewarded for commitment and a higher MCMMO skill level.

 

If 'treasure' cannot be removed, perhaps find some way to code it so that you also get a plain fish at the same time.
We had this once, and I'm not entirely sure why it went away.

I've been smelting the iron/gold stuff, even enchanted, to make nuggets, and thus make ingots, but it is time consuming. Wooden tools can be used as furnace fuel for this purpose if nothing else is available.

 

+1 It's just stupid how you make less and less money as you gain more fishing mcmmo...

 

Maybe just have better treasures, like nstars, $100 music discs, etc

 

Agreed.
If you could somehow change the treasures or give a lower chance of getting them then it would be so much better.
I also suggest adding some of the StarCasino rewards to MCMMO.

 

I once got a fortune pickaxe from fishing. But that’s like 1 in a 100000, or something like that. (It’s a hyperbole, just deal with it) but there are some unnecessary things that might need to be removed....

 

-1 Since we already get a good amount of money by fishes we can just throw away the treasures we don't actually need, otherwise if the treasures are changed we could produce a lot more of money for not that much work. Also the crappy stuff is useful for some players.

 

This is already true for players with low fishing MCMMO. It isn't a suggestion to buff fishing; it is a suggestion to stabilize the income.

-1 To both of these. This isn't about increasing the income from fishing. Also, why would fishing get special rewards unlike every other money making method?

 

/smeltall|/cnd bind it to a key with macromod. You have $1000+ features, I am certain you must have these.

 

I wouldn't use /smeltall while I'm actively fishing as I have no need to cook the fish (/feed+ ftw). I could do it, certainly, but there is no point to that. There is also the bug where armor you are wearing can get smelted, too, so that is even more reason to avoid such automation. The time consuming bit also includes turning the nuggets in to ingots.

And it doesn't negate the lack of fish, thus lack of profit, that comes from getting 'treasure' instead of fish.

This should dramatically change fishing having removed quite a TON of crap.
Let's see how fishing goes through the next 7 days before making any more major suggestions regarding it.
