I shit you not, since catching the infinity bow, I have caught two other bows that once combined will give me the same bow as that.

On a server I play on, I spent 5000 of in game currency on a saddle. Later that day, I go fishing for some pufferfish. First thing I catch: A saddle.

I'm clearly missing something, here? Maybe?

Could you explain, OP?

He had some luck on his side and fished up an infinity bow. This is possible since 1.7

It is appreciated, it just doesn't cut it anymore in mid to late game. Fishing is great for early game though.

ummm... how so? It's 100% afkable, and provides things you can trade to villagers, as well as other useful things.

This is purely personal preference I guess, but when trading with villagers there are a lot of things that are better than fish. Think about string, paper and zombie flesh. Also, i would not call it 100% afkable since you have to put something on your mouse button (with the automated fish farm) and you can't do anything else besides waiting. If I would fish in mid late game it would be for the name tags and good bows, but both are easier to get by other means.

Well part of the under appreciation is due to the fact that it was terrible until a couple of updates ago when they added all this stuff

I have a cheaty fishing rod with lure 8 and luck of the sea 50. I call it my treasure islander and it's a lot more fun fishing when you only have to wait 5 seconds or so.
