I searched a little down the forums and Fishing ain't anybody's current concern lol. I see tree killers, mob killers, diamond syphon events, never Fishing contest events. That would be nice to have for example a monday night fishing trip with a cool bunch of players and mods. Nice way to actually not destroy anything at all and enjoy some nice chat session while seeking who gets the most fish or best treasure of the day collection. We're just missing the fermented wheat juice to go with it (lol joke, that's not for kids!) Pieces of cakes I meant.. Fishing is somewhat under rated in my humble opinion.
There is one already, it's only being held once every month though: http://empireminecraft.com/threads/something-fishy-14th-march-5emc-9gmt.62936/ EDIT: if many more people like fishing (not saying they don't), I think a weekly event would be a good idea.
we did try for a while to hold official Fishing events every week, but attentence declined and mods who were able to host it, stopped being able to but there is nothing stopping players from holding their own fishing event
I was actually thinking of holding fishing derby's once my properties are developed. Watch for +docks on smp6
