The amount of fish that the player has on the line is displayed right outside of the mini-game display on the top-right. It starts at 3 and decreases by one each time the fish leaves the fishing bar. So 3 fish will be caught at once only if the player catches the fish perfectly. '''The fish will escape if it leaves the fishing bar 3 times.'''

Note that catching multiple fish does not grant additional [[fishing]] experience points. However, catching multiple fish while working on a fishing or [[Quests#List of Special Orders|special order]] quest counts all of them toward the required total.
Challenge Bait cannot be used with the [[Training Rod]] or the [[Bamboo Pole]]. Only the [[Fiberglass Rod]], the [[Iridium Rod]], and the [[Advanced Iridium Rod]] can use bait. Challenge bait can also technically be used in a [[Crab Pot]], but it is no better than [[Bait (item)|standard bait]].

==Bugs==
When challenge bait is equipped, it appears that the chance of catching trash in the Volcano Caldera reaches 100%. This can sometimes be avoided by leaving the level and re-entering it, by either door.
[[Version History#1.6.3|Patch 1.6.3]] fixed "a bug that caused excess trash to be fished". It needs to be verified if the aforementioned bug is fixed now.
