Fishing
Fishing is a running gag / easter egg in Path of Exile. The long running in-joke by Grinding Gear Games about fishing actually being a mechanic within the game is sometimes getting continued with the addition of yet more small references. To clarify, there are no known or recorded instances of actual fishing or fish in the game.
