-Fishing skill is learned from the school of body and is level 1 at the time. Overtime a player's fishing skill increases. This increase may take weeks/months of fishing before it will increase, but when this occurs it's usually in multiple increases at a time. The exact amounts needed are unknown. <br>

 The common group includes: Abdju, Carp, Catfish, Chromis, Perch, Phagrus, and Tilapia. For all lures, you will catch some of these types of fish throughout the day.
-Uncommon fish may require Speed, Fishing Skill, and possibly better fishing rods.
+Uncommon fish may require Speed, Fishing Skill, fishing in the right location, and/or better fishing rods for successful catches.
 Speed fish are the second most common fish you will catch. If you do not have sufficient speed, you will see the message "You almost caught a unusual fish, but were not quick enough."  The requirement is not sharp: if you have almost enough speed, you will have more of a chance of catching this type of fish.  The thershold of speed varies with the max speed required at 28, and most speed fish less than this. (The speed fish types are different for T6 than T5 but the pricinple applies: Observations against two speed fish showed at 25 speed: 16 deben pancake loach and 22 deben tigerfish both were unsuccessful. 1/3 Rate on tigerfish and 0% on pancake. Observation against the same two with 28 speed showed 100% success.)

 Skill fish are the next in rarity.  If you have insufficient fishing skill, you see "You almost caught an odd fish, but you were too late recognizing the bite."  You may also need speed to catch some of these fish. This type of fish is impossible to catch with fly fishing 1.
-The third fish requirement yields the message "You almost caught a strange fish, but this rod was just too clumsy." The controlling factor for this message is the quality of the rod that you have.  A basic rod will catch none of the strange fish very well.  The rods known in game are at [[Fishing Rods]]

 Fishing has different variables that are used throughout a cast of a lure. These include Fishing Skill and Speed, but may include others.
-) There is a chance of making a successful cast based on your Fly Fishing skill.  This is roughly 40% at skill 1, 90% at skill 6, and 100% at skill 9.  Failure of this check leads to the message "You didn't catch anything."

 ) A species of fish is determined from those available to be caught with that lure at that time of day.  This is usually (but not always) the species that has the largest sizes available. If there are no fish available you will see the message "No fish bit."

-To avoid misconceptions and false information, please add the facts only. The bottom of this page contains a data section which the categorizing of fish cycles should go. Data that also proves or disproves information should be posted in the data section below the fish tables.
