A fishing support add-on. It's a combination of TackleBox, Impp's Fishing Info and a limited EquipManager all rolled into one. I wrote it both to provide some functionality that was missing from all of the other fishing add-ons I was using and to learn to do add-ons -- I've succeeded in both (at least according to the people who've been testing it out for me!).

Features:
- 'Fish Watcher' lets you see the fish you've caught here before (or the fish that you've caught in the current session)
- Display your current skill level and the time since you started fishing
- Choose your fishing outfit and change into it easily
- Simplified casting support (right click to cast, fast recast)
- Support for automatically adding a lure to your fishing pole
- Full Titan Panel support
- myAddOns support
- Track 'cycle fish' like Nightfin Snapper and plot graphs of the times caught
- Full German translation

Example commands:
/fishingbuddy or /fb
toggle the display of the Fishing Buddy window
/fb help
print the list of Fishing Buddy commands
/fb switch
wear your chosen fishing outfit, or change back

There are two actual add-ons -- the second one, OutfitDisplayFrame, handles the pretty pane to set up your fishing outfit (it's next on the list to be made into something more general that anyone can use). The OutfitDisplayFrame addon can be safely left out if you have a preferred equipment manager.

alt-clicking on an item in your outfit display will clear it

Silly stuff:
In addition to displaying the fishing bonus for your fishing outfit, it also displays your 'style points' as inferred from Draznar's Fishing FAQ.

Thanks to the authors of:

TackleBox -- still adding cool features to keep up with!
Impp's Fishing DB
QuickWeaponSwap

and many, many others!

Is it possible to fix the extravaganza timer? I am in Australia so I am 15 hrs ahead of the game timer and it keeps popping up for me on Sunday instead of Monday (local time). The flip side is that it doesn't appear at all on Monday.

I play on 2 machines. Is there a way (even manual is OK) to merge databases from these two machines? Where is the tracking data kept?

@Ceriux -- did you get any errors? Which specific part didn't work? Lots of people use this (over 30,000 downloads so far across various servers), so I know that it works for more people than just me :-)
