Aged Roe (+40%)
The Ice Pip is a fish that can be caught in the Mines on the 60th floor during all seasons. The only other fish that can be caught there is the Ghostfish.
The chances of hooking an Ice Pip depends on fishing level and on the fishing zone of the spot fished, increasing by 4.5% if a Curiosity Lure is equipped and by 9% if Ice Pip Bait is equipped. For example, at level 10 fishing and fishing zone of 5, the chances of hooking an Ice Pip is 6.45%. This increases to 10.95% with a Curiosity Lure equipped, to 15.45% with Ice Pip Bait equipped, and to 19.95% with both a Curiosity Lure and Ice Pip Bait equipped.[1]

References
- ↑ See MineShaft::getFish in the game code. While Data\Fish.xnb suggests that a fishing level of 5 is needed to hook an Ice Pip, the data in MineShaft::getFish, which does not have any level conditions, overrides it. This means that there is no fishing level requirement to hook an Ice Pip.
