Aged Roe (+40%)
The Woodskip is a fish that can be caught in the pond in the Secret Woods during any season. It is most prevalent there on non-rainy days, with each cast having a 15% to 27% chance to hook a Woodskip depending on fishing skill. The Woodskip is more likely to hook at higher Fishing Zones.[1] It can also be caught on the Forest Farm, with each cast having a 0% to 17.5% chance to hook a Woodskip depending on daily luck.[2] It can also randomly be found at the Traveling Cart for 
225–1,000g.

Typical output includes orange Woodskip Roe and wood, but other tree-related products are possible starting at population 6.

References
- ↑ See "Spawn rate" on the Modding fish data page.
- ↑ See Farm::getFish in the game code. The exact chance is equal to 0.05 + Daily Luck meaning there is no chance of hooking a Woodskip if daily luck is at or below -0.05. Maximum chance occurs with a natural daily luck of 0.1 and having the Special Charm.
History
- 1.4: Added iridium quality. Can now be used in Tailoring. Can be requested in Fish Pond quests.
