    i can't be only guy who have trouble with fishing. specially the super rod is very very hard to use. there must be a easy way, or a simple trick for fishing.

    Fishing in R/S/E is different to that of other games such as FR/LG etc. As soon as the "!" appears press A. It may or may not take you into a battle straight away. If it does yay. :3c If it doesn't, get ready to press A again. It'll come earlier each time. Remember to practice with the Old Rod since it's the easiest one, the good rod is helpful too. Fishing is difficult in these games, I'll admit. :P I remember having a lot of trouble with it. :3c

    I also had this problem. I played FireRed before playing RSE so I was completely screwed up when I began fishing. I got used to it after a while, so I'd just say keep fishing and you'll get used to it. That could just be me though.
