In the bottom right fishing spot, with a red worm lure, you can catch the Red-Tailed Catfilsh, the only event fish that will bite on a free worm lure. Look for a small circle that collapses slowly inward. You will have to drop and release MANY times, but eventually you will see that small circle, and that's the Red-Tailed Catfish.
Thsi fish takes the most patience to catch, I usually have to drop and release 20 times before I get one. But he's worth it -- about 12 lbs on average
I dedicate about 25 green and 5 blue vouchers to this event, and no more. I make sure I only catch event fish with those, and have only been fooled 3 times by that stupid Rudd and once by the puny Lake Trout.
Catching 8 event fish per trip through the fishing area allowed me to catch 366 lbs of fish in 14 hours - - a personal record fast finish for me.
Also - I dedicate 4 fields to a fishing timer and plant crops that relate to the recharge times if the fishing spots: indigo, pumpkin, cotton, and chile. Then I can see at a glance if any spots are ready to fish again, and if they are not, how much time until they will be ready.
