Fishing spots are commonly broken up into ocean, lake, and river types. However, while most fishing spots in a similar body of water will share catches, the map also plays a role. For instance, the river in [[Cindersap Forest]] is not the same as the river in [[Pelican Town]]. Ponds usually have a smaller selection of fish, if any, compared to larger bodies of water and the selection is usually specific to the map where the pond is found.

Keep in mind that the less fish there are in a certain location, the more likely it is that [[trash]] will be caught there.

This concept of the fishing bar getting bigger is especially useful when trying to catch extremely hard fish such as the [[Fish#Legendary Fish|Legendary Fish]] and the [[Octopus]]. Reaching fishing level 10, using an iridium rod with a [[Cork Bobber]] or [[Trap Bobber]] tackle and with the master enchant, as well as eating a food (better prepared with [[Qi Seasoning]]) that provides a temporary fishing [[buff]] (such as [[Seafoam Pudding]], which provides the biggest fishing buff out of all food) will all help make catching these difficult fish much more manageable.

==Fish Size & Quality==
{{Stub|Needs to be updated as of v1.5 (levels 15-16 fishing)}}
Fish size & quality is dependent on fishing zone and fishing level, with some randomness. Perfect catches also influence the fish size somewhat. Below is the table for the chances of getting certain fish sizes and quality based on particular fishing zones and fishing levels. Note that the Base Fish Quality does not take into account improvements in quality from perfect catches or from the Quality Bobber. fFishSize is a variable used to calculate variations in fish sizes: a value of 0.00 for fFishSize will result in the least possible fish size while 1.00 for fFishSize will result in the highest possible fish size. Bubbles do not affect fish size or quality.
