This is a minigame where you collect fishing points by catching fish in certain locations in villages. These points are then exchanged for various prizes, mostly weapon attachments. Fishing uses bait which you can get as treasure in villages and dungeons and as drops from some monsters.
What does everyone see in Dark Cloud 2? - posted in PS2: Honestly, I just got this game cheap at Ultimate Electronics blowout sale. I've been hearing that it is.
It’s a good idea to go fishing whenever bait items start to collect in your inventory as you have limited amount of space.To begin, complete Alnet’s House in Norune Village; Alnet gives you a fishing rod as a reward. For Norune and some other locations, you must release the Pond from Atla and place it in the georama.
Contents.Mechanics Check the sign near the fishing spot and choose Fish to enter fishing mode. In fishing mode you can move normally except you can only move a few feet from the edge of the water. Press to bait you hook or change bait; items useable for bait are usually listed as fishing bait in the item description, although some items can be used as bait that are used primarily for something else. See the bait section for a list. Face the water and press to cast your line into the water. In most locations you can see the fish swimming around and it may speed things up to cast the line close to them. Once your line is cast, assuming it lands in the water, you can use to move the pole left and right or to pull the line out.
In spots where you can see the fish you may notice them sniffing at the bait.Fish seem to be more interested if the bait moves a bit, so you might try moving the pole to pique their interest. If the fish don't seem interested then try different bait; some baits don't work at all in some locations and different fish like different bait.When a fish starts to nibble at the bait, you'll feel the controller vibrate and the float on the line will move slightly. Don't try to set the hook yet though because it's only a nibble. When the fish swallows the bait you'll see the float go under water, so set the hook by pressing.
Be quick about it though because if you're too slow the fish will get away and take your bait with it. Two important points to remember are to not try to set the hook until you see the float go completely under water and to react quickly when you do see it.Once the hook is set, hold down to reel in the fish, it is automatically measured and you get fishing points depending on its type and size. You throw the fish back and you can now re-bait the hook to go after the more fish. You can’t catch the same fish twice and eventually the number of fish in the pond decreases until it’s difficult to catch any more.When you're out of bait or there are no more fish, press exit fishing mode.
The pond will will be restocked the next time you start.Fishing locations Here is a rundown of the five locations where you can fish.

Dark Cloud (1855–1918) was a First Nationssilent film actor, born Elijah Tahamont.[1] He was a chief of the Abenaki, a First Nations band government belonging to the Eastern Algonquian peoples of northeastern North America.[2]
Early life[edit]
Tahamont's father, also named Elijah Tahamont, had studied at Moor's Charity School and Dartmouth College, where Native American education had been funded by a gift of £12,000 in 1767 from a Native American, Presbyterian Rev. Samson Occom.[3] Moor's School had been established for 'civilizing the wild, wandering Tribes of Indians in North America, and ... for promoting religion, virtue, and literature among people of all denominations.'[4]
Tahamont became known first as a popular lecturer, and as a model for artist Frederic Remington, the most successful Western illustrator in the 'Golden Age' of illustration at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. Remington wrote and illustrated a novel, John Ermine of Yellowstone.
Acting career[edit]
Dark Cloud began working for American Mutoscope and Biograph in New York City in 1910, making his first screen appearances in the era of 'eastern Westerns' under the direction of D. W. Griffith and with cinematography by Billy Bitzer. Unlike the later Westerns, featuring dramatic conflicts and indolent Natives, these early films showed Native Americans with respect: in serene, nearly still-life profile against a wide landscape, as though in calm reflection on their lives before the treaties were broken.[5]The Song of the Wildwood Flute, with Mary Pickford and Mack Sennett, was filmed near Fishkill, New York. Dark Cloud's first movie, The Broken Doll, was made in 1910 in Coytesville, near Fort Lee, New Jersey, where Griffith also filmed Call of the Wild.
Dark Cloud appeared in many Westerns and other films during the 1910s. He moved with Griffith's company to the West Coast in 1912, eventually appearing in at least 34 silent movies in a brief film career of only 8 years, cut short by the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918.[6] He was sometimes billed as Chief Dark Cloud or as William Dark Cloud.[6] After Remington's death, Dark Cloud collaborated on making a 1917 Francis Ford movie, based on John Ermine of Yellowstone, in which 'John Darkcloud' appeared as Fire Bear.
Tahamont was dressed as Hollywood's idea of a 'Plains Indian Chief' for all his theatrical roles. Being Abenaki (a group of tribes native to Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, and Southern Canada), he would have never worn the mock ceremonial garb in his personal life, and is often viewed as an example of the long-standing Hollywood tradition of stereotyping and minimizing the cultural diversity of native tribes across the Americas.[7]
Personal life[edit]
Tahamont married Margaret Camp, who became an actress billed as Dove Eye of the silent film era. The Tahamonts' children, Beulah and Bessie, reportedly were 'the first Indian children to attend a New York public school'.[8] Beulah appeared in early films and on stage. Their granddaughter, Bertha Parker, was an archaeologist and ethnologist. As an ethnologist, she wrote about the lore, mythology, and early history of Native Americans in California and Nevada.[9] Her third marriage was to the actor 'Iron Eyes' Cody, who played the Indian who sheds a single tear for a blighted American environment in 'Keep America Beautiful' ads that ran from 1971 into the 1980s.
Tahamont's death, in Los Angeles, California on October 17, 1918, was from bronchopneumonia, officially attributed to the Spanish influenza pandemic.[1] Rumors that he was murdered by a jealous husband, that he died from accidental drowning, or that he was still alive were never substantiated. Several of his films were released after his death.
