So long as you aren't wanted dead or alive just spend all your money (or donate it to camp) and walk into the town and surrender to the cops, they'll chuck you in jail for the night and it clears your bounty

Ah, things you learn. Nice one. I can handle that. Spent days in the wilderness so a night in a cell is fine.

Anyone gone fishing yet ?

Yeah I've been fishing it's good fun man, take a ages when you get a big fucker on.

You get the rod after a mission when you are asked to spend some quality time with Abigails son so you decide to take him fishing

Ok I've played for a few hours now and I really like it.

The controls can be a little clunky at times, I have run people over while trying to lasso them, then get a bounty on me etc.

Quick tip for anyone beginning, keep your fist equip instead of your gun, so many times I went to talk to people, forgetting my gun was equip, the left trigger (aim) is the same as talk to people, so I would end up drawing my weapon and starting a fight.

There are some minor glitches, and things that are unnecessary but overall I really like it. Think I'm addicted. A few hours can fly by, with the feeling of having done nothing much at all. So must be having fun.

Watch a vid on quick draw if you haven't played the first or its been awhile. Keep your dead eye as full as possible, it makes things easier.

I also try to loot every body I see.

Oh and any witnesses, chase them down, rather than kill them, killing them makes it worse and can add to your bounty. Or hide the body real good.

Haven't been fishing yet, but run into a few alligators.
