:Fishing, while potentially lucrative, requires practice and a great deal of patience. Your skill at fishing depends greatly on your experience in the [[Survival]] skill: the more Survival you know, the more successful you may be at the various fishing actions. It may not seem appealing at first, but as you progress it will become more interesting as you learn to fish properly and efficiently.

==Shopping==
Once you have some gold, you can start spending it! There are a few ways to buy things with your gold. First, you can seek out a [[shop]] and spend your gold there. Shops may be found all across the land, though they are mainly concentrated in the major [[city|cities]] and some villages. They may be owned by denizen (such as the ubiquitous [[Rurin]]), adventurer, or even organization. You can tell if you are in a store by LOOKing: if there is a line stating to use the WARES command, odds are that you are in a shop. Use the aforementioned WARES command to see what is on sale, and for how much. If you want to look more closely at an object, you can PROBE the item listed, though you should use the item's full name (plus number) to avoid conflicting with something you may be holding (or even another item in the shop). To purchase an item, make sure your gold is in your hands, then BUY <item>.
