Other Shit to note:

+ "Worm" is both the item itself and a stand-in for any generic bait (maggots, sand grubs, etc.)

+ Set your fishing rod to 1m. It reduces risk of the line snapping during reeling and time spent reeling.

+ Fishing with a carbon rod won't buff your fishing skill or improve your catch rate or anything. What makes the carbon rod special is a feature it has that lets you see how plentiful the fish are in a given tile.

+ If you sit in a water tile, any text about the fish you see swimming beneath its surface means those fish are actually catchable from that specific tile.

+ Lobster claws/presumably regular claws are helpful in this regard, especially if you have a sub-17 fish total since it'll give you messages about what fish there are in a tile whenever you fail a roll. Fish caught with claws will not survive. Seems you need better totals than 17 if you want to catch 'special bait' fish.

+ Floodplains fish eat and kill other fish in tanks, including each other. Display them separately.

+ Miniature Ross Seals sometimes spawn on the shelf in the Kakuri Monastery Basement. There is no way to fish for them normally.

+ Used Condoms are a freshwater bottom fish that can be scavved from the alley behind the Orphanage. Yet to be seen in the wild, but apparently they were out there at one point, long ago...
