Fiddlesticks needs reworked in some way

Essentially the title. Due to the Harrowing I decided i'd play fiddle, one of my first champions I hadnt played in a long time. After several games with him I had mixed success but primarily found that he just isnt a very strong champion.

His fear causes people to run away from his drain/ gank. His drain and silence are fine I suppose. His Ulti is where i have the biggest problem, while the damage potential, especially into the later game is quite good, that shit takes forever to channel. You also dont go very far when you fire off and ult so unless you burn flash with it you cant really cover that much distance on a gank at all, and thats for a jungler who is already lvl 6.

When I look at a good jngler I look at their ability to gank pre and post 6. With fiddle the channel on his ult which is his best ganking tool isnt even decent until lvl 11. Before that point someone has to be really pushed in lane or you have no real chance.

I want feedback on what others think, I just remember this guy being my favorite champion when I first started and when I decided to bust out Pumpkinhead Fiddle this week I was pretty disappointed.
