Tech Fish Needed
- University of Worship Horticulture - Filleted Catfish, Perch, Tilapia
- University of Worship Barley Cultivation - Filleted Carp
- University of Worship Viticulture - Filleted Adbju, Carp, Catfish, Chromis, Perch, Phagrus, Tilapia
NOTE: The fish above must be filleted to get their meat. If you do not fillet within two real life hours they will be Rotten Fish. Filleting in a Kitchen -> Skills -> Fillet Fish yields the highest deben of fish meat compared to filleting from your avatar, Skills -> Fillet Fish, in the field.
Insects/Lures and Fish They Catch
There are rumored to be 49 different species of Insects, split into 7 different classes.
The table below uses the size in debens. Some fish are caught in strings of catches that decrease by 0 or 1 in deben size. For example a 20 deben Malapterurus might have subsequent catches of 19 deben, 18 deben, 18 deben, 17 deben etc down to 1 deben on the same lure. Sometimes it helps to move around as you use the same lure to continue the string.
Non 'string' fishes (usually the original atitd fishes) seem to be caught in a higher deben amount on the first catch and then reduce quickly or straight to to 1 deben. The 1 deben catch amount for that fish on that lure seems not to change unless you switch out lures. ~Ariella
"String" fish change in size like carrots - in waves. They increase in size over time and then decrease in size until they are not caught with that lure in that cycle and will either, change to the next "string" fish - which will start at 1db and slowly increase in size to go through the same type of wave cycle - or the original atitd fish will be caught.
Once a "string" fish is caught, change lures and wait 3-5 minutes before returning to the original lure. You can then determine whether you were in the up cycle or down cycle. If it's the down cycle, keep fishing with that lure (if you want that fish...) until you are at 1db. If it is the up cycle, you can fish for awhile, catching decreasing size fish, as stated above and switch out lures again. Once you return to that lure if it is still in the up cycle, you will catch larger fish in decreasing increments again. Rinse and repeat.
The original fish (abdju, carp, catfish, chromis, perch, phagrus and tilapia) have a mini-wave. After the first catch, that fish will decrease in size when caught again, however, if you switch lures and return to that lure after 7-8 minutes, you will have the chance to catch that same fish at the larger size rather than the smaller size.
I performed a test on 12/26/10 using 13 lures. If I caught a fish on the first cast, I switched lures. If I caught no fish with 3 casts, I switched lures. If I got one of the more likely original fish (catfish or carp) at under 5db, I would try for one of the others and sometimes 2. On 9 successive cycles with 7-8 minutes in between casts using that lure, I caught catfish at 7db on each cast (except for 1 at 8db). On the 10th cast, I stopped with the first fish which was a Pancake Loach starting it's cycle of increasing size. Different lure (Hairy Slug), I caught (10) 4db tilapia. Most of the lures repeated within 1 or 2 db of the original effort. On all 13 lures, I consistently caught the same db fish from the original casts. Note on the "string" fish: Medusafish repeated 20db first 5 times and went down by 1 on each of the next 5 casts. (also occurred with 2 other lures but different starting weight). It seems that it spent about 35 minutes at the top of it's cycle. In the past, there were times when this method didn't work as consistently - possibly time of day or the lure or fishing skill may have an influence. I ran this test with very high speed (34) so that I did not get any of the "almost caught..." messages. ~tefnut
'String' fish: Malapterurus, Octets Longfin.
Knowing the above, good tech lures would be Horned Hookworm, Mud Asp, and Rose Mites. Switch out lures when you catch the fish listed and change locations at the very least once you cycle those lures through once. Make sure to fillet in a Kitchen to maximize the debens of the fish meat and do it quickly after catching and no later than 2 hours after catching or it will be Rotten Fish when you fillet.
For fertilizer fish, choose the 'string' catching lures like Bat Mite, Bristleworm, Needleworm, Red Cricket, White Mealybug. Wait a little more than two hours after catching so when you fillet they are Rotten Fish to use as Flower Fertilizer (3 Rotten Fish yields 50 Flower Fertilizer).

With the Arthropodology skill, can find insects while: Water mining, picking papyrus, collecting wood, thorns, slate, mud, dirt, harvesting flax, diving for pearls, carving wood, foraging, slaughtering sheep
Successful Fishing and Failures
Successful fishing can be improved by using better lures, moving locations often, changing lures when deben of fish goes down to 1. Two techniques might be to be stand in one spot and go through your lures or the lures for the particular fish you want or to move often on the same lure.
Tests with simultaneous 14 Speed and 14 Perception stats from food did not seem to raise the deben size of fish or the number of catches by much if any. ~Ariella
Failure messages:
- "No fish bit. Try different lures and locations."
- "You didn't catch anything. Try different lures and locations."
- "You almost caught an odd fish, but you were too late recognizing the bite."
- "You almost caught an unusual fish, but you were not quick enough."
- "You almost caught a strange fish, but this rod was just too clumsy."
There is a chance of losing your lure with each failure. See the chart above for lure lasting times.
Getting a failure message isn't indicative of no fish in the area.

Notes
Some BETA experiences (from Detour):
I went out fishing with 2 Red cricket (Fresh) lures. Hopped to about 6 different locations and cast about 10 times before losing both lures with no fish caught. I was getting the messages, "No fish bit. Try different lures and locations," or, "No fish bit. You also lost your lure. Try different lures and locations."
Next I used a Woodmoth (Fresh) lure. I caught 3 fish before losing it. They were 7, 6, and 6 deben Malapterurus. I was standing at 777, -1428 at around 6:26 AM game time. I lost the lure on the same cast as catching a fish and didn't get a notice about it. It just disappeared from my inventory.
(Tanafri: On a successful fish catch, as I understand it, you will always lose the lure.)
(Haraelendil: you don't always loose you lure on a succesfull catch)
Finally, I used a Wooly aphid (Fresh) lure. I got to cast it about 3 times from different locations before I lost it with no fish caught.

Kaayru: I was fishing at a small pond in Sterope (1626 -697) at 1:25pm. Got the message "You almost caught an unusual fish, but you were not quick enough." - Is speed a factor?
tehm: there is also a "You almost caught an odd fish, but were too late recognizing the bite" message. I tried Grilled Garlic (+foc)- no observable change. Next tried Grilled Carrots (+per) and was still getting the message. Maybe "recognizing" means "snaring" rather than "identifying" and Dex or Speed is needed to "recognize"?
(Tanafri: it's not the *fish* you're not recognizing, but the bite on the line.)
MynxFellswipe: It seems that fish size (in deben) decreases over time. I initially caught a 27db Ayu at 10pm, then gradually smaller (26, 25, 24...) as the hour passed. I had someone else fish next to me after some time. His fish sizes also started around the 26db mark and decreased steadily.
Saluk: I used Orchid Hopper to catch several 1db river crab in one spot (759 -5608) at around 6pm. Always 1db. Switched to Wooly Aphid and immediately caught a 5db river crab. Caught several more 5db with wooly aphid. The lure type definitely affects the size.
Tanafri: Fish has a bulk of 20, regardless of weight.
Akebono: Golden Asp catches big Ayu got 20,19,18,18,17 deben before I lost the lure
