Weapons & Equip Angler Armor set bonus tweak

right now the angler armor provides a set bonus that reduces enemy spawn rates, which while helping aid in fishing spots that are open to the air is not particularly fishing orintated, instead I propose that the angler set bonus should provide a weaker form of the sonar potion buff, simply letting you know if it is one of the following items

junk (tin can, seaweed, etc)
fish (normal catches, rare catches, quest fish, etc)
treasure (non-stackable fish, usable equipment and tools)
crate (all crates)

this weaker form would still mean that for specialised applications like quest fish you still need a sonar potion, or if fishing for specific crates or treasures

if this is still too powerful perhaps it could be simplified even further to only provide an items rarity
 
This honestly seems like a really good idea, although the rarity thing seems a lot more complicated in comparison to naming the general category. The latter seems pretty balanced with how difficult it is to obtain a full Angler set. Might get overshadowed by Sonar Potions if you have a surplus though...
 
The only thing I would change or improve about the Angler set is to grant the ability to not make your fishing line break. Donning the entire set makes you feel like a pro!

...except that would make the High Test Fishing Line obsolete, but due to the way how Angler rewards work, I consider it as a highly elusive item. Unnecessarily so, I might add.

Overhaul the angler quest fish system my post talking about the quest system might interest you then
 
I would say that it should be added to the current set bonus, rather than replace it. Otherwise you replace a bonus that is almost certain to be useful (spawn reduction) with one that is completely negated by using a sonar potion.
