===Fish Size & Quality===
===Fish Size & Quality===
The factors that influence fish size are fishing zone and level, with some randomness involved. This is controlled by a variable called fFishSize, which 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. <ref name="fish_quality" />

Base fish quality is directly determined by fFishSize: if fFishSize < 0.33 then the quality is normal, otherwise if fFishSize < 0.66 then the quality is silver, otherwise the quality is gold. This quality can be improved by one grade with the [[Quality Bobber]]. It can also be improved by one grade with a perfect catch as long as the fish was at least silver quality initially. These boosts stack with the Quality Bobber boost being considered before the Perfect Catch boost. Note that since the maximum base fish quality is gold, the only way to get an iridium quality fish is by either getting a perfect catch or using the Quality Bobber. <ref name="fish_quality" />
