I can't catch normal quality fish anymore?

Solved: Cast your fishing rod closer to the shore~


I tend to collect and keep at least one of every item,
So I'm eagerly trying to catch each quality of every fish.

But I don't get normal quality fish anymore?


I have the fisher skill, worth %25 more​

 

Make your casts as short as possible, so they are close to the shore. It's definitely possible to catch regular quality fish even at Fishing 10, I know I've done it enough times on misclicks

 

Oh, Thank you!
I always try to max out because why not, I didn't even think of that having anything to do with it!​

 

have you caught a gold star sandfish?

 

When your fishing skill rises, you slowly lose percentage chance to catch regular quality fish and gain in chance to catch silver and gold quality fish. The same applies to farming. At level 10 farming, you have like a 40% chance to get a gold quality crop in normal soil, so catching normal quality fish becomes more difficult.

 

I haven't unlocked the desert yet so nope!​

 

This sounds super helpful but for me this is going to be a challenge haha!
Awesome and all, wouldn't try to change the game mechanic.

"I can't catch gold quality"
Me: I can't catch normal quality ;-;

I have my priorities on point​

 

One More Day's work around should work. The quality of fish rise the further away you are from the water, where the water is darker in color. The reverse is true if you want a regular fish. The lighter colored, shallows water, is the way to go to try and increase the odds of catching a normal quality fish.
