Original Post — Direct link

Fishing from a small boat the fish disappears, which may be a game mechanic but when this happens my player character continues as if still reeling in and glitches to where I have no control over the character.

Only solution is to fast travel.

@caraamon Apologies for the late response. I have looked into this issue and this was supposed to be fixed on the current update 1.2.1. As you are still experiencing this could you please provide a video to show that you still experience this on small boats and the long ship and I will forward it on to the development team to investigate further.

@SneekyWeasel As I mentioned above, this issue should have been fixed in the latest update. If you have the latest update installed could you also provide a video to show that you are still experiencing this so we can investigate the issue further.

I understand that you are frustrated, however we are here to provide you with support and do not appreciate abusive comments, so please keep your comments civil. We posted a developers blog back in April explaining the process for fixing bugs. Please have a read of this as it may give you a better understanding on how bugs are reported and fixed.

Hey,

I see the issue is still an open issue with the dev team so it is something that they are aware some players having but we don't have any further updates at this time I'm afraid.

Hi @h31130n1 I'm sorry to hear that you are still unable to catch fish whilst on a boat.

I can confirm that this issue is still being investigated and there are no further updates.

If possible could you please upload your latest save to the cloud and provide a video that demonstrates this issue.

In the video could you show the following:

  • That you have the latest update (1.5.3) installed. This can be seen in the main menu screen before you load your save.
  • That you are unable to catch any fish on a small boat


Can you also confirm if this happens in all areas with all fish or if you only experience this in specific areas with certain fish?

I would recommend uploading your video to a video sharing platform such as YouTube, you can then copy the URL link into this thread.

@Damien__Blade could you please do the same as I mentioned above if you are also still experiencing this issue.

Thanks.
