    Or at least have a -0 Mage Wep/SC Fishing Pole. Maybe have a "Fishing Pole of Prosperity" with the stats of the Swords of Prosperity, as a new high-end Fishmonger reward.

    There is, It has a small side effect tho.

    Focus on what you can do, not what you can't.

    That is not a MAGE WEP, it has no skill or damage.

    It's a fishing pole. They don't do damage. So they don't need a skill. But you can cast a spell and it don't fly out your hand  B)

    They can be attacked easily by melee, archery or spell. Maybe they can add trident or harpoon with inherent, new slayer property called "sea slayer" aka slayer for anything that spawn in the sea, including eles and orcs.
    If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

    Can't you imbue them?  I know not for a weapon but for several good items.  I have about 25 of them I imbued several years ago, does it still work?

    Can we equip rolling pins and frying pans with Cooking weapon skill also while we are making up stuff?

    Yes if it makes you happy and hurts no one do you have something positive to contribute or you just want to sugar troll ?

    Runic crafting. So far, this pole has worked pretty well for me.

    My fisherman uses a spell channeling vollem while fishing… seems to work pretty good.

    Fishing people have weapons.
    It's called whatever weapon they choose to train into associated with the weapon skills, or magery, or a pet.

    Fishing as a profession also has it's appropriate item, it's called a fishing pole. Equip it to use it, it can be crafted with mods.

    Not a difficult concept, don't see any reason to re-create the wheel for something that's worked well enough for 25 years now, just because people are bored of pretty cut and clear gameplay.

    How would this hurt?

    It's not that it would hurt, it's that the desire for it is purely made out of laziness.

    You equip a fishing pole in order to fish... And that's it. There is nothing preventing you from making use of the Dress Arm macro functions to equip a weapon instantaneously in order to deal with monsters fished up. Or from using a pet, or from being a caster and making use of a spell channeling pole.

    Furthermore you already have cannons on boats that are capable of doing damage to monsters, players, etc.

    Great example of the type of request we see when people are bored.

    What's next? A pickaxe that uses the mining skill to kill ore elementals?  :#
