Facts and route notes
Category: Collection
Focus: Default style, 2 new fish per style, 39 total styles, and 76 fish completion
Checklist: Use the Fish Collection as the real progress tracker for bobber style unlocks. Plan seasonal, weather, time, mine, island, and legendary fish so the 2-fish milestones keep moving. Remember bobber styles unlock in order, so a specific late style needs enough total unique catches.
