Catfish
“The Catfish is a large, whiskered bottom-dweller with a sturdy build and smooth, scale-less skin. Known for its whisker-like barbels, which help it sense food in murky waters of Mushgrove Swamp, the catfish is a resilient and adaptable fish.”— in-game Bestiary description

Catfish guide
Catfish is the night shift of Mushgrove Swamp. This Rare fish needs Worm bait, Night, Foggy weather, and either Autumn or Summer, which gives you two seasons to work with. It is obtainable.
It is a heavy fish: the average catch weighs 9 kg, with a maximum of 30 kg, and that maximum ranks 358th of 663 fish. At C$20 per kg the average comes to C$184, which is 501st of the 742 documented fish, so it lands in the lower half of the table. Base XP is 120.
The flavor text describes a whiskered bottom-dweller whose barbels sense food in murky water, and it calls it resilient and adaptable.
Two rods are sold in the swamp: Frog Rod and Fungal Rod. Either is a natural fit if you are buying for this spot.
Verdict: a decent, steady catch for the effort, not a jackpot. The conditions are strict, so only commit to a night of fog if you are already in the swamp. For quick cash it is fine, and the 120 XP is a useful bonus.
