Know what meals can be cooked out of the rainbow trout? Please edit the Discussion page to let us know.  :)

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
