It's more annoying than anything.  You have to find the perfect pixels to be standing on for it to work.  There are times where I spend 1/4 of my durability just trying to cast and have it "catch" the right spot.  I'm always standing in the same area on the same spot.  Any trick that makes this less annoying?

I just stand on the dock right near the banker. Never had any issues fishing there. 

I've tried that location too.  I used 1/2 a rod's durability just casting and failing over and over at that spot.  Do you mean to say that every single time you cast a line in Valencia it just works?  It never fails right away and you have to cast again?

Yes i've never failed an attempt in the manner you describe . Only times I have done so is when I try to far from the waters edge. When you do this, does it just keep auto casting and failing repeatedly? Or are you continuously trying yourself? I was not aware that failing a cast used durability. Try different rods? Different server? Another character? There is another thread with a similiar issue. Maybe the most recent update is causing a bug. 

So far it's no longer doing it after this last update.  I just thought everyone had these issues.  I didn't realize that it was isolated.
