Vitch tries to gather some peaches, but he can't shake the trees. " STUPID WEAK ARMS!" Richard runs by Vitch, but then notices him struggling to shake a tree. "...You okay? Looks like you're trying to get some of our Origin Oranges. That's fine, since you're putting in the work to harvest them. You could also jump up and try grabbing them with your net, if shaking the trees doesn't work for you." |

"I guess I'm off to try out fishing." Tye will run off to the pond by his house to fish.
+1 Fishing!

Tye casts his Fishing Rod in the pond by his house.
After a few minutes, his line gets a bite.
All Tye does is fish! Fish and sees pals!

Vitch jumps up with the Net and barely manages to snag the tree's 3 Oranges.
Fruits can be stacked in your inventory to form a stack of 9. This is automatically done. Also, everyone's Pockets can hold 20 items at a time to clarify.
Tye, with barely any effort, reels in the catch. It turns out to be a Tadpole.

"I could have sworn it was bigger."
Cast the rod again!

Tye casts his line again, and gets another bite. Reeling it in again, it turns out to be a Frog this time.
Vitch goes on a harvesting spree, harvesting about half of the orange trees in Origin before his weak body demands a break. Looking through the oranges, he finds one in particular that's different from the others. It looks like a brighter orange, with a lump on the top of it. The smell of the orange is distinctly sweeter than the smell of the others.

"Tadpoles and Frogs. It makes sense they would be together. Maybe I should try the river for some better fish. I want to pay off that debt soon."
To the river for fish!

Tye tries the nearby river for fish. He casts his line. A few minutes pass before he gets a bite.
Whoa, this one's stronger than the Frog family. Better be careful, or your line will break.

Take it in a few steps at a time. Reel in a bit and loosen up a little before reeling in again.

Tye stays patient with the fish, reeling it in slowly and loosening up at times to lower the line's stress. You can tell this fish is pulling out all the stops to get away though.
Eventually, after what seemed like forever, Tye pulls his rod and reels in his catch. It turns out to be an Eel. Wow, those aren't as common at this time of day! Lucky catch!
After pocketing his Eel, Tye notices something about his Fishing Rod. There's nothing truly wrong with it, but something about the Rod now makes it lose its pristine. It's totally still usable, though.
Similar to Axes in Animal Crossing, in ACR, all tools will actually have some sort of durability mechanic. Trying to reel in a tough catch has slightly lowered Tye's Rod's durability. Eventually, tools will break and have to be replaced. However, durability does not determine a tool's effectiveness, and using your tool in an easy manner, like using a Fishing Rod to land an easy catch, will usually not lower a tool's durability at all.

"Cool, I caught an Eel! I didn't know we had those in these rivers. Better be careful if anyone goes swimming."
Tye will go for one more catch in the river.
Interesting mechanic...I hope this isn't too much of a money drain though.
Also, is there going to be something to record our catches and such? Normally I'd just toss it in the museum when it was new, but we don't have one. We don't even have a store!
