Infographic Explanation

This is a work in progress and incomplete, still 1 fish is missing from the chart: Oxyrynchus.
FF# is Fly Fishing skill needed to catch.
Italics indicate an odd fish that you may need several casts to catch if you don't have a rod of high enough quality for that fish.
More info on the fish rod and speed needed is at User:Porthos.
The first and last month the fish will be smaller sizes and harder to catch in general.
The best time to catch is in the middle of the time spread indicated.
Over 20db size difference exists depending on game position. Egypt is divided into 64x64 fishing grids with best spots are usually at +/- 1 a fishing grid boundary, so it takes alot of searching to find the best spots or the really rare fish. As Egypt can be thought of as 10,000 fishing zones, there are lots of potential spots to check, and each fish type can be caught in many zones throughout Egypt.
Other good information to reference is at Fishing Theory.
