Location 29 - Radiant Bridge, South Shore, West of the road
Now the western side of the Greenest Road on the south shore of the Radiant Bridge

Location 3 out of 5
Whilst still close to the bridge, you're more exposed to orcs.

Catches 5 out of 5
The Chionthar river is very rich in fish.

Problems 2 out of 5
You're closer to the orc patrols

Total Score 10 out of 15
Good but very risky fishing
I cannot be lost, because I am here, though I may be geogrpahically misplaced.

Location 30 - Chionthar River - Smugglers Bank
Further along the south shore lies the less disturbed banks of the river.

Location 2 out of 5
You have to move out of the Radiant Bridge's safe zone to fish here.

Catches 3 out of 5
The Chionthar river is very rich in fish, but the steep banks here make it difficult to reel in fish.

Problems 2 out of 5
You're closer to the orc patrols, outside of the safe zone and will have to deal with whatever smugglers don't want the attention

Total Score 7 out of 15
Not worth the constant attempts at backstabbing

Location 31 - Radiant Bridge north shore - east road.
Crossing the bridge gives access to safer fishing spots

Location 4 out of 5
Whilst safer, the only spots to fish are close to the road, which is often covered in puddles so expect to be splashed with mud often.

Catches 5 out of 5
The Chionthar river is very rich in fish

Problems 2 out of 5
If you can put up with the costant splashes of mud, and having to wade out to assist anyone using the ferry to cross, than it might be viable. The slow sink into the soft river banks might say otherwise to good fishinh.

Total Score 11 out of 15
If the banks could be reinforced it might be worth it for fishing, that spot owes me a new pair of socks lost to that thick mud.

Location 32 - Radiant Bridge docks
The might of the Radiant Bridge has a small dock that can be fished off.

Location 4 out of 5
Generally safe and even a bench to sit on, the only downside of this place is the lack of a shop to sell off your catches. I think the guards are not allowed to accept gifts from strange folks.

Catches
5 out of 5
The Chionthar river is very rich in fish, and the safety of the dock makes it easy to reel them in.

Problems 4 out of 5
Good fishing, just check with the Bridge captain so you're not attempting to fish when they get a delivery by boat. The guards don't want "strange" folk getting in the way.

Total Score 13 out of 15
One of the best and safe places to fish along the Chionthar

Location 33 - Radiant Bridge North Shore - Baldur's Gate Road
The road from Radiant Bridge to Baldur's Gate often follows the river banks, meaning access to fishing

Location 3 out of 5
You have to move out of the Radiant Bridge's safe zone to fish here, and the roads aren't always patrolled.

Catches 5 out of 5
The Chionthar river is very rich in fish, notice a trend?

Problems 3 out of 5
You're away from safety and on the wrong bank from orcs... but you still have to deal with snakes and worse BEARS!!!

Total Score 11 out of 15
Nice fishing, but losing your catch net to so many bears.

Location 34 - Chionthar River - Super Secret Catfish Corner
There is a bizarre section of the river where you'll only find Catfish

Location 4 out of 5
A perfect bank and shelter from bears and snakes, means it's a good place to practice for one species.

Catches 1 out of 5 if you hate catfish 5 out of 5 if you do
This weird spot along the river just seems to be swarming with catfish.

Problems 4 out of 5
There are only two problems with this spot... it's a distance from any merchant to buy those catfish, and is catfish any good anyway?

Total Score 13 out of 15 if you like catfish - 9 if you hate them
It's just a weird spot where the catfish swarm, I'll give you a clue to where it is, it's between two white trees.
