Some fish can also be caught via an "Aquarium Fishing Net" to place into an Aquarium for the home, which will in turn generate a few more rare fish; but these will not survive outside of either the Aquarium or a Fish Bowl and cannot be turned into a Trophy nor cut up for steaks. This article will thus focus only on Fish caught via the Fishing Skill.
