MegaCatch
MegaCatch - Adds extra fishing mechanics to Minecraft Version - 0.8.0
About
MegaCatch adds extra catch events to minecraft. If, after 10 seconds, you didn't catch a fish, you will get a random catch event, ranging from catching a fish to saving a pig. If you manage to catch a fish between 5 and 10 seconds, you will get 4 fish in one! Bonus!
Be advised that I would hope to eventually code this plugin from scratch to use the new bukkit events, which would make the entire plugin much more bug-free and configurable.
Note: This plugin is entirely based on BigCatch. Without work by spoonikle this plugin would never be possible. Check out the old version here.

Given how long its been since an update, I don't imagine you will notice this :P But if you do... the plugin still works on most recent bukkit, but you only get notified of what you caught when you cast your line again. Any chance of a fix for this? :)
I haven't had much time to write code publicly, but I promise that when I do I'll try to get to this. For now, here's the update for R6 - sorry it took so long. I forgot.
With the fishing api from bukkit, I really hope to do a rewrite on the way that MegaCatch handles everything, which should make the entire plugin run much better.
Also, thanks to spoonikle for coding this awesome plugin in the first place.
My players love this plugin, I hope to see it continued to be updated for the new version of bukkit!
Dude I Am So Glad You Did This I love BigCatch Now Its MegaCatch Well That Makes my day Good Job on the plugin and keep up The Hard Work, I am Going to use this for Both My Dedicated Servers.
I love BigCatch, I still use it even with MC 1.0.0. My daughter and I have fishing contests and we get such a laugh out of the funny comments and silly things we 'catch'.
I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with MegaCatch and having it updated - although I haven't noticed any problems with BigCatch.
If there were going to be any changes, I would only like to see a little more variety in what one is able to catch, and the funny captions to go along with it. Maybe making the catch items configurable to some degree for those who really like it far-out ridiculous and those who prefer it slightly more realistic.
BigCatch is a GREAT plugin and I am sure MegaCatch is pretty much the same. I'll be trying it out when the upgrade to 1.0.0 comes out.
Same here, if you're (the developer) still active I'm willing to try this out
I would love to see an update :D
Any word on an update?
