Fishing + Hot Springs.....?

I was wondering....is there any point in fishing in the Hot Springs? I know you can, but what are the advantages or disadvantages?

And another thing. I saw on some website, something about a Glass Box only obtainable through fishing. Is that still available or has it been removed?

And a second another thing....What's the story on the Fishing Contest? Is that starting soon? Or will I have to wait until the next chronicle?

Anyone?

no idea

There is a clan hall there that you can fish for certain items and then participate in a competition to get it.

Our clan recently won it.

It has a hot tub. :D

It has a hot tub.

Clothing optional in there? I guess it depends on who owns the hall.
