The higher the quality of the fish, the more weight the fish will have. Each species has a weight to quality ratio. A high quality roach will likely never outweigh any quality of catfish for example.
You can get better fish in deeper water. This water depth is the same depth that first triggers the "Out to Sea" achievement. Past that point special fishing tiles, usually found with [[Lurker in the deep]] pendulum, begin showing up quite frequently. Special fishing tiles do not move/disappear on their own. The tiles will change to a different special fish type at the beginning of a season change. Tiles can disappear if the terrain around them is modified. Heavier fish also cause your line to snap more frequently (possible based on line quality and/or skill level). Losing fish to line breaks reduces your catch rate, but generally fishing in deep water is better than shallow.
Some shore fish can also be caught out in ocean waters, usually at a higher quality than they would be found closer to shore. Typically the lighter fish are much easier to catch at high quality, with q50+ roach and perch being not uncommon even for a beginning fisher. High ql catfish on the other hand will be quite rare at the beginning.

== Notes ==
* Larger fish start giving less than 1 fillet per 0.3 kg, and cap at 50 fillets per fish. Max fillets tends to happen around the 15 kg mark, but may be related to [[butchering]] skill.
* When catching white or blue sharks, they deal a small [[poison]] damage wound. If left to heal naturally, this has a very small chance to kill you on the healing tick.
* Fishing in deeper water is almost always better.
* The fishing skill is quite slow to level, a high [[Circle of Cunning|CoC ]] rod wouldn't be a bad idea.
* Willow rods take less damage from catching heavy fish.
* Fishing skill goes up as you fish, not when you catch the fish.
