Fishing Lill-Yan
Lill-Yan holds 1 species and regnbåge schooling beneath them. The modest depth keeps most of the fishing within reach of the bank.
Whoever fishes Lill-Yan regularly builds something of their own: a log of what took, where and when. That's how the water gives up its patterns — cast by cast, never all at once.
