Carl's The Sims 3 Fishing Guide: Fish List
Bait, Fish, and Catch
Here is a list of all fish in The Sims 3 and the expansion pack, World Adventures. Use this list as a reference to know the best bait for each fish. Once you've caught plenty of a certain type of fish in the Sims 3, you can use a neat feature.
Once you have ten of a certain type of fish, stock a pond with them. You could have a pond with angelfish, death fish (catchable at all hours) and alley catfish. You can even stock a pond you make in your yard with the fish you catch. Reportedly, stocking the pond multiple times increases the rate that you can catch fish. However, it will never become a highly active fishing spot. It's still the best way to catch death fish later in your Sim's career.
You'll note that the fish levels are not listed here. This is because they are largely irrelevent. If you are using the right bait, you can catch exotic fish early. Please consult my Riverview, Sunset Valley, and World Adventures fishing spots guides to learn where to specifically catch all of the fish in the Sims 3.
Many fish can be used in The Sims 3 Recipes, and is particularly helpful for creating the ultimate meal, Ambrosia.
