Fish

Game data

Every fish belongs to a family. Areas and water sizes favour different families; better rods and baits add catch and quality bonuses. Whalewood's swamp has its own species and needs Whalewood fishing gear. Willowmere Lake and Halloween City (during the Halloween event) have their own fish too.
