Gone Fishing

So the other day I checked my puzzle that was featured on CTC , and it had over 12000 solves, which took me a few minutes to wrap my head around. I want to take a moment to thank every single person who has taken time out of their day to solve one of my puzzles. I love setting puzzles, but I wouldn’t do it if not for you guys solving them. You make this possible for me, so thank you, and I hope you enjoy this puzzle.
Normal Sudoku rules apply. Digits a chess knights or kings move apart must be different. Digits cannot repeat within a cage. Each set of three digits along an orange line must contain one digit from 1,2,3, one from 4,5,6, and one from 7,8,9. Digits separated by an X or V sum to ten or five, respectively. Digits separated by a black dot are in a 1:2 ratio. Not all XV or black dots are necessarily given.
Try it on CTC
Solution code: The middle row of the puzzle

I think this is the first puzzle where I actually coloured the entire thing with 9 distinct colours before even placing a single digit. That was very satisfying.

Great coloring puzzle. Also, great use of the antiknight and antiking's constraint. Thanks for sharing.

Sometimes I forget things about antiking + antiknight puzzles; a puzzle like this helps me remember. :)
Good coloring fun!

Very nice intro to using letters instead of colours!
Letters > Colours for these puzzles!!

Very nice introduction to coloring puzzles, but very accessible and only one star difficulty in my eyes.
