 Description   

If you try to fish a chicken or a bat, they'll start to 'fly away' (make hurt sounds repeatedly while the bobber is attached, causing them to take an increase of altitude until you let go).

Fixed (I think) for 1.2.0.2.

That's the best thing I ever saw! The chicken flew away from me and eventually broke the "lead".

Tested and confirmed with mcpe 0.16.2 in wm10 on a Nokia 950.

Clearly this is working as intended. ; D So im not voting it up... This needs to stay.

Edit: Blazes, bats and ghasts can also be "fished" to produce a similar effect.

Non flying mobs can also be fished but appear to be unaffected aside from being "tied" to the rod.

The wither can also be fished but responds like a non flying mob.

These where all tested with the aforementioned setup.
