WIP -- Fishing Quick Reference || 🎣
Posted 2023-10-20 11:59:54 (edited)
(Please don't post here till I'm done, thanks~)

I started this first just for my own use, but then I realised other folks might find it handy too!

It's pretty simple, really: I'm taking the data from Grouse House's fishing guide and sorting it per biome. Makes it easier to use as a reference while you fish, cause you won't have to search through the whole list! All credit for the actual research and statistics here goes to the hard-working Grouse House team!

Formatting--

-- Fish name: weight for delicate fish (maximum weight possible)

So, for example--

-- Alewife: 2.21 oz (3.93 oz)

For small common and regular fish (generally I think of under 2 lbs as small), I find they're not worth submitting unless there's a chance you'll get the weekly leaderboard reward. On the other hand, I'll always submit a fish over ~7 lbs just because of the bump to the daily weight leaderboard. And rare+ fish are worth submitting just for the SC! ^^
