Fishing is completely broken on ps5.
I upgraded from the ps4 to ps5 version and tried to go fishing again. My reel was in the water for 10 minutes with a ton of fish swimming around and got absolutely no bites, that is until I started randomly pressing X and got one. Which means they were actually biting but there is zero controller vibration response.
There was another post but it was getting no attention: https://discussions.ubisoft.com/topic/84877/bug-ps5-controller-no-longer-vibrates-when-fishing?_=1606846440278
I never expected the game to actually get worse after upgrading.
I've also noticed the lack of controller vibration in many other places that the ps4 had it (i.e. the drinking game). It's a shame since the ps5 controller is the most revolutionary thing that came out of the new gen consoles.

I also was extremely frustrated by this issue after upgrading from ps4 to ps5.
I had my line in the water for 10 minutes with fish everywhere and NOTHING was happening, go to a new spot, still nothing.
So I decided to start randomly pressing x and hooked one!
So they actually were biting, its just that the vibration on the ps4 is non-existent on ps5, rendering fishing ENTIRELY impossible.
