With the absence of the knowledge of a primary habitat, how is it that you
have such a listing in your guide? I thought the Cat Fish card didn't come out
yet. I'd have to say that I think this is one of those snowballer scenarios from
word of mouth here on the board, much like the many other cases in the reports.

Hard to really know for sure, isn't it? hehe...I mean, Toon A posts success,
then Toons B through ZZZZ are encouraged by this news and no longer (or
not nearly as often) fish anywhere else confidently until they share in that
success. As for me, I've spent tons of hours fishing in all of the ponds in
Daisy on several different toons and the playground is the only place I catch
that rascal.

It's just one toon's opinion, but I think the guide should ONLY state what
Disney says the primary habitat is. Anything else is nonsensical without
testing, excluding obvious flaws of course. The drive for getting extra
LAFF in the shortest amount of time will always influence toons to go
where they know others have had success (based on posts and word of
mouth) instead of where the game's own designers say are the best places.
