Let's Go Skinny-dipping

OOC: Okay! So I'm starting this off with fishing because it's an easy Level 1 item so we'll only need four rounds. Because there is no reward if you do not meet you round requirement, please be ready to see it through if you jump in!!

I good gathering thread will have a bit of research behind it to ensure that you get the most points possible, and the most yield for your efforts! You might even choose to link web pages you source your information from, especially for higher level threads. To earn maximum points, try to do several different tasks over the course of your thread. And be wary!!! Gathering more items than is reasonable for it's rarity is considered powerplay, and will deduct from your final score. To take a peak at the Beta Judging Rubric, click here.

GATHERING: Fish (Level 1; Trout) ROUND 1 Seraphim waded in the cool waters. His legs had long ago gone numb, and perhaps soon he would need to take another break, but the season so far had been surprisingly mild and he was deep in the south; winter had gripped them too tightly. It was bearable for now. And besides, he had never seen better conditions for catch trout. Sure, up north maybe, but the comfortable chill had driven their numbers in greater abundance than he'd ever seen in these otherwise sparse climes, and he planned to take full advantage of it. So around he waded, occasionally retreating to the shore to dry off, warm up, and watch the surface of the river for leaping fish. He hoped to find brown, brook, or perhaps even rainbow trout. Even one would be nice! But it had been so long since he'd tried his hand at hunting them thanks to that blasted illness. He sighed, staring down at the moving stream below him, and the smooth pebbles beside and beneath his massive paws. He wished Angel or Vana were there to hunt along with him, but he pushed the loneliness back down in his throat. It would do no good to get distracted from the task at hand. "Talk" "You" Think
