I believe fishing was lowest on one of the recent surveys of favorite minigame. I think the "biting" concept makes it a lot more exciting, but that seems to happen at fixed times of the day. I wonder how many players know this is a thing.

There is also a big gap in fishing utilities between regular nets and large nets, so putting chum in the middle would be good. Chum uses a lot of your bait, so it seeks pretty balanced. I think 30 or so seconds is a reasonable time for chum to operate. Using more than 1 extends the time that the fish are "biting". There can be perks/farm upgrades for chum effectiveness too.

it just hit me-- what if it were a community effort? maybe a site needs a certain amount of chum to initiate biting for everyone. maybe if the community OVERchums it, the fish get full and stop biting. imagine a big chum drive.... all of us working together.
