Data on Roe - all welcome

Just went through some fish, these are my results with the type of fish they are. All numbers were rounded to the third decimal place.

281 River Betty (River) - 7 Roe
94 Spadetail (Lake) - 0 Roe
71 Longfin (Salt) - 0 Roe
57 Dhufish (Salt) - 0 Roe

281+94+71+57=503

7/503=0.014

1.4% overall

Going off River Betty alone

7/281=0.025

2.5% chance on River betty

Therefore the filet to Roe ratio would have been

Spadetail=2.350
Longfin=1.775
Dhufish=1.425

Don't think it's enough to conclude that River Betty is the go to fish, it may be all River fish or it could simply be a fluke. I'll have to go work my rod to find out.

    assuming a ~1-2% chance over all fish, the 7/0/0/0 distribution you saw is nothing out of the ordinary.
    i got a 1 out of about 60 Dhufish this morning. Will filet more when I'm home.

    in general, this will need much more data. But tbh i except equal chances for all kinds of fish. I wonder what the final chance may be. Could be 1%, could be 2%... maybe even 2.5%. Let's see.

    btw: does anybody have actual data on how much fish per hour you're usually able to fish?

    Unscientific but with different fish totally around two hundred I got four roe today.

    The day before with the same amount of fish I got three.

    Here's some data for you:

    River Betty x11 -> 0 Perfect Roe
    Salmon x6 -> 0 Perfect Roe
    Silverside Perch x75 -> 1 Perfect Roe
    Spadetail x62 -> 1 Perfect Roe

    All of this was from fishing in Lower Craglorn.

    Also you get this gold sparkle around your character when they find Perfect Roe.

    Sorry, not so scientific..

    2 Perfect Roe from 38 fillets. All ocean - AD version of Rivenspire

    Oh, and even less scientific from the very first night..
    2 perfect roe from 96 fillets. Mixture of Foul/Lake/River (mostly river though) fish from AD Reaper's March.
