Make this unique.

I don't think any apart from  should be unique. Plus, it not being unique does not cause any problems. Two Fishers catching each other means they'll both be caught in a net the following night, and two Fishers catching one player means that player will just be caught in a net the following night as well.

Dont make this bypass roleblock immunity.

Why not? The role blocking occurs at the start of the night so this wouldn't be a problem, and needs a way of dealing with that nasty.

Let counter-attackers counter attack.

So if a gets caught in a net the following night he attacks the Fisher? No, it's an indirect role block and should be treated as such.

Give an alert when someone has been caught in the same night

Ehhh... does this need to happen? Being caught in a net will alert that player that there's a Fisher in game, and it will allow them to talk to and compromise for their role blocking. That's not good, it should be more for the surprise element, like an unexpected visit. I don't think any apart from  should be unique. Plus, it not being unique does not cause any problems.

'''But two fishers are powerful together and with coordination can make almost everyone except the Mafia active at night, that sounds OP to me. The point of this role is to stop the Jailor meta, not making it so that noone can do their role at night except for the Mafia.'''

'''But that'll screw over a ton of roles, and I think Bypassing rb immunity should be a Jailor only thing. Also, the Pirates RB is in the day but that doesnt stop RB immune roles.'''

With the problem being its still a Roleblock........
