Tips
Small fish are the most common catch when fishing, so you will accumulate them quickly. Grill them in bulk for a cheap supply of healing food.
For better per-item healing, save larger fish for Large Grilled Fish or use fish fillets in recipes like Fish Skewers and Fishball Soup.
Fishing is also a life skill that gains experience over time, so cooking your small catches is a productive way to use them rather than selling them cheaply.
