Locations Info

Location: Critter Cove

Approximate percentages, but evidence seems good enough.
Samples were taken from the platform beside the tourist dropping point.
Gupper and Squidlettes might have the same chance overall, but with special fish in play I always seemed to get less Guppers.

Okay, before the next location, I think I have fished enough “trash” to make a table for that.

Since some items have such low drop rates, I can’t say for sure what you can find on each location, since it can be just luck, but the most common ones seem to be found anywhere.

The combined chance for a “Salvaged Furniture” seems to be around 6%

Location: Sunken Ruins

Approximate percentages. It seems that special fish always share the same catching rates in this location, whatever the bait is.
With no bait, I actually got more than 30% trash this time. Don’t know if it was just RNG and it was supposed to be 30%.
Finally, samples were taken from the stairs inside the glass dome building, close to the gamer skeleton.

Location: Oh Cay

Seems it is missing some nuts and bolts, because either the percentages are kinda funky with this one or RNG was not on my side.
No numbers matched with each other this time, so here is the mostly unchanged values I got from fishing over 250 times with Barnacle saying fishing is nice by my side and other 250 times with him buried in the sand.
