Angel Skins

Well then all the other fishers on my server must suck. Because they all occassionally pull out pugs even those doing this now for several months....

I wouldn't say they suck, just not as skilled. Manta and Pugs are similar but if you've been fishing for a while, you'll be able to tell the slight difference in the two. Takes some keen observation and repetition but it's possible to tell.

Guess I need to try harder then! But for now I need a break. ~.~ Can't stand that place anymore. Got me my Sha'ir Manteel and still sitting on 4 skins. That should do for a while.
Oh and @ the OP for the record I must be sumwhere like 25/~150. I have stopped counting my Mantas when I got to the 50s.
Well good luck to every1 trying for those. It's pure random from my experience. There can either drop 3 skins within 2 hrs or not a single one in 10 hrs.

Peace

sometimes pugs and manta feel the same with stamina dropping slow and wiggling around alot, but I noticed that manta will increase stamina extremely fast when you use the wrong direction, pugs stamina go up about the same rate as they go down.

Even the best fishers will occasionally pull up pugils. The difficulty in which the line is pulled changes with the amount of fishers. Now I'm not saying these players you're talking about are using bots but I do know for a fact that there are scripts out there that will only pull up manta. I have been doing this for 3 years and I still pull up pugils from time to time. Unfortunately the programs are usually untraceable as far as I know so if they are using it you're just gonna have to deal with it. The good thing is that it doesn't make it any more likely that they will pull up the manta it just saves them the time of having to fight the occasional pugil that regular players will pull up.
