Is it possible to fish at night or during the day?

You will need years of experience to become an expert fisherman. Being a successful fisherman will require you to master new techniques and enhance your skills.
How far should I go?

Losing a fish is part of the game. Sometimes you might catch a fish but then lose it. When this happens, just keep trying. You will eventually catch another fish.
