    You will get your first bamboo fishing pole for free from Willy (it costs 500gold at his beach shop).

    How to fish:
    Face water with the pole selected, hold cn_X to start casting and then release at desired distance. When you get something to bite press cn_X to start the mini-game.
    The goal here is to keep the fish inside the green bar. You control it by tapping or holding cn_A. Same as with farming and mining etc, this is a skill you level up.
    Be aware some fish are harder then others to catch.

    Depending on time of year/day and location you fish at, you will get different fish to bite.

    Alcoholic SocksI had it show at the bottom saying if unlocked this, but the achievement hasn't popped. Since that I've unlocked one for earning so much gold. Seems to be bugged for me
