Fishing Success Rate
By fluffy loser.
Here’s how likely a fish is to bite your hook:
- Starting rate: Every bait gives you 0.06 (6%) chance
- Rod upgrades add more chances:
- First upgrade: +0.02 (2%)
- Second upgrade: +0.04 (4%)
- Third upgrade: +0.06 (6%)
- Fourth upgrade: +0.08 (8%)
- Fifth upgrade: +0.10 (10%)
You can get bonus chances by:
- Using slow-reel: +10% to your total chance
- Using Attractive Angler: +30% to your total chance
- Fishing while it’s raining: +10% to your total chance
- Having drink buffs:
- Regular Catcher’s Cola: +15% to your total chance
- ULTRA or DELUXE Cola: +30% to your total chance
The highest chance you can get is 0.36 (36%).
Catching Different Items
Here’s how the game decides what you catch:
Regular Hook:
- 1-2%: Treasure chest
- 3-5%: Junk items
- 6-100%: Normal fish
Magnet Hook:
- 1-4%: Treasure chest
- 5-10%: Junk items
- 11-100%: Normal fish
Rain Changes:
- When it’s raining, 1-8% gives you special rain fish
- You usually can’t get treasure or junk while it’s raining
How Fish are Chosen:
The game picks three things about your fish.
- What kind it is
- How good it is (tier)
- How big it is
Special Hooks:
- Worm bait: Can’t catch tier 3 (best) fish
- Fly Hook: Always gives smallest fish
- Large Lure: Always gives biggest fish
- Sparkling Lure: Always gives highest tier fish
- Golden Hook: Gives rare fish if possible (Golden Bass, Golden Manta Ray, Diamond, Leedsichthys)
Tips:
- Large Lure is better for catching Whales than Sparkling Lure.
- Bigger fish give more XP.
- If no special hooks are used, you get the first fish rolled.
