My question is... I was fined 60k for illegally fishing out of season. I waited till the season opened before I even dropped a pot, even before a plotted a string. whats up with this? What am i doing wrong?

It happened on both the seasons that I played. At the beginning of the game is there something that I should do besides hiring deckhands and getting fuel, bait and pots? After I press the B button when I am done with the hiring and loading part then there is a dock boat press A ( the little popup) I press A then it takes me back to the loading fueling screen.
I tried to plot the string and go to the beginning of the string without dropping a pot or baiting it. I sit there and wait for the beginning of the season. Ive tried the other way just sitting there in the port until the beginning of the season but I still get fined.

Does anyone on your crew say anything, hmm this only happened to me in the first season. Very interesting O maybe to many crab pots on the boat at one time with all the weight that might be your problem make sure u have all that correct if so im not sure what to say. _________________________________________________________ The one the only Scarface!!

off hand is there a limit to how many pots that you can put on? I know there is a set limit to how many pots will fit on the boat but I didnt know if there is a coast guard limit to how many a season are aloud. and yes one of guys does say something its the old timer with the beard he say "oh #$%^ it" thats it.

No you dont lol. As for your question, did you make sure to get all of your pots out of the water before the season ended?

hmm thats a good question...I will make sure all the pots are out of the water next time I play. There are a few different things to experiment with to make sure whats causing me to get fined. Tonight I breached the hull....it sank. Everyone survived though..lol oh on top of that I was fined too for fishing out of the season. just like before. and there was pots in the water. lol As a matter of fact all of them and the boat.
It really is sad that they didn't take more time with this game. It could have been so much better. Hell it would be downright depressing were it not for the fact that Civilization Revolution is coming out! From all I have seen and heard it kicks serious ass! I played the demo and absolutely loved it and from what all the critics say the demo doesn't do it justice! Thank God for Sid Meir! _________________________________________________________
