I was just thinking of having the time go by at least every 5 minutes instead of 10. I don't know for sure if this will help any, but it seems to me everytime i "TRY" to fish, (and don't catch anything) time just goes by way too fast, Plus two more things i would LOVE to see, is that time would pause in your home when you first wake up. I had a pet emergency and when i came back home, i ended up restarting my whole game cuz it was way too far gone, and when you fish you catch at least two to three fish of the same type.
