The availability of many types of fish can depend on various factors: the location of the fishing spot, the season, the time of day, and the weather. Match your fishing location to current conditions as necessary in order to give yourself the chance to catch the type(s) of fish you want.

In general, you want to cast your bobber as far from land as possible, to maximize the [[Fishing Zone]]. Longer casting distances are important, but also casting east/west instead of north/south can improve your fishing zone, as can fishing in wide-open water. In addition to affecting the quality of the fish, Fishing Zone also affects the chances of catching certain fish over other ones. While all non-Legendary fish can be caught in tiles that have a zone of 1, a lot of the "better" fish have a higher chance to be caught the further at higher-zone locations.

[[Fishing#Bubbles|Bubbles]] greatly increase the rate at which fish bite, and can also alter the relative chances of each fish type at the location.  Careful placement of your bobber on the edge of the bubbles allows the bubble bonus to be used in any of the adjacent tiles, providing some ability to optimize your Fishing Zone.
