Fishing Pole (EM)

__NOTOC__
Fishing poles are 10-foot wooden poles. When a pole is held and a command word is spoken, a string appears, complete with a bare fishhook, fastened to one end of the pole. When a second command word is spoken, the fishhook silently flies through the air and the line magically lengthens. The hook continues toward its target to a maximum range of 360 feet, and the hook flies at 120 feet per round. If the hook finds its goal, it tugs sharply on the line (easily noticed by the user); if the goal is not found, it returns within one turn. A third command word causes the line to shorten, either by breaking or pulling something along with it, caught on the hook. The hook normally does not damage the creature or item retrieved, as it magically sticks to it. If desired, the user may proceed toward a stuck hook—the line automatically shortens as the distance does.
If a magical hook is ever lost, it can be replaced only by a wish or recreated by a wizard of the 26th level, who must also have experience with making such items. The magical line cannot be broken by force or normal weapons but can easily be cut by any magical edged weapon (no die roll needed). The line is not shortened by this kind of damage and still appears on command; however, the hook is needed to extend the line's length.
Fishing poles are immune to all attacks except flame attacks, dragons' breath, or magical fire, and are immediately destroyed when touched by them.
