Gone Fishing

I just wanted to share a few pictures (that's right, I figured out how) of Bronco and Maholm fishing; and of Maholm's new fishing gear. Here is a pic of Bronco fishing with Maholm in some sort of green moat in the mining district of Bastok. I'm not sure if I would want to eat the fish out of there, but so far it has been the best place to catch fish in Bastok for me. I wanted to take a picture of both of us fishing but when you are fishing you cannot use the menu to select anything, let alone take a picture. Jeff had wanted to post a picture of Bronco fishing but he couldn't take a picture of himself so he asked me to. He also took a picture of Maholm fishing but I don't have it right now. Maybe he will post it later. Or maybe we can do something crazy and have a 3rd person take a picture of us both fishing. Stay tuned for that exciting update.

Here is a picture of the new fishing gear I picked up at the auction house the other day. I started leveling up Maholm as a white mage (for when I complete my subjob quest) and I discovered that I didn't have any level one clothes that a white mage can wear. I went to buy some at the auction house in Bastok but there was nothing available for cheap and not much to choose from at all. It turns out that I sold all of my level one clothes that you start the game with to free up inventory space in my mog house. I ended up buying this fishing shirt (which gives a +1 to your fihing skill) for 7000 gil and these fishing hose (which I think are really fishing tights) which also give a +1 for another 7000. So I spent 14k on some new threads so I could lay down the law on some level 1 hugh hornets. Now that I have some sweet fishing swag I can work on getting my fishing skill above 1/100.
