Fishing

The Seasons expansion includes new options to fish in ponds.

Fish and Meals

Here is the list of the different things you can catch when fishing, and the meals that can be cooked with the fish.

  • Blue Catfish - Blackened Catfish
  • Jumbo Blue Catfish - Blackened Catfish
  • Boot - Can't cook meals, but you can use it in the juicer.
  • Largemouth Bass - Bass with Squash
  • Jumbo Largemouth Bass - Bass with Squash
  • Rainbow Trout - Stuffed Rainbow Trout
  • Jumbo Rainbow Trout - Stuffed Rainbow Trout
  • Golden Trout - Stuffed Golden Trout


Fish meals are a great option for your sims:

  • They cost nothing in grocery bills, as you can fish out of your own pond.
  • If you use "Serve" then you get several servings out of a single fish.
  • They require very little cooking skill to cook.
  • As they are fresh food, they will sparkle when cooked - this makes them very satisfying. Generally just half a plate of food will be enough to fill up your sims.
    • Just be careful - sims eating after they're full makes them fat. Cancel them eating when they're full, and put the leftover individual and serving plates in the fridge as leftovers for later.
  • Keep the fish in your inventory - they'll stay fresh infinitely there.

The Golden Trout

The golden trout is the rarest of the fish, and the hardest to catch. It doesn't use any special lure to get it, but the chances of catching one increase when you get a gold badge. Even with a gold fishing badge, the chance of catching one is just 3%. It doesn't really do anything special (beyond being worth a lot, and making a very satisfying meal) but it's worth bragging rights.  ;)

Baits/Lures and Badges

As you gain skill in fishing, your sim will gain fishing badges. Depending on which badges you have, you'll be able to use different baits, which will effect the types of fish you can catch.

  • No Badge - Worm
  • Bronze - Riverblossom Minnow
  • Silver - Stink Ball Bait
  • Gold - Sparkle Spinner

Can't Fish?
