Fishing
The odds of catching a fish are affected primarily by the other fish in the area at that time. More competition means your chance of catching a particular fish over another is lowered. Here is a table of this fish's preferences by the bait used, the place you choose to fish, where you choose to cast, the rod you use, and the time of day. A higher quality rod will not increase your chances of catching a sardine but it will improve the average quality. If a method isn't listed below it's impossible to catch this fish using it.
