I don't know if this is universally true but, in my game, I had the hardest time catching perfect quality lobsters! I needed those lobsters for the lobster tank in my restaurant! My Sim was fishing Crystal Springs in Sunset Valley at the time, so it may be better in other worlds or areas.

The quality of bait your Sim uses, combined with the skill your Sim has, combined with the challenges your Sim has completed in Fishing,
and combined with the number of fish they have caught in a certain category ... All have an impact on the Quality of fish they catch.
Point in case ...
The quality and value of fish your Sim will catch continually increases.
If your Sim Stocks a Pond on their property with Alley Catfish, Angelfish and Deathfish ... Your Sim can make a lot of money.
The Alley Catfish they catch will soon be perfect, because it takes less skill, and their Quality Score will increase faster.
Perfect Alley Catfish have a better chance of catching Perfect Angelfish, and at an increasing Quality and Monetary Value.
Perfect Angelfish have a much better chance of catching Perfect Deathfish, and at an increasing Quality and Monetary Value.
Your Sims can catch two Perfect Alley Catfish, with Normal Cheese from the Grocery Store.
Then use the Perfect Catfish to catch 3-4 Perfect Angelfish, and at a higher Quality Score.
The higher Quality Score can be seen in the increasing value of the fish caught (it will still fluctuate, but at a higher value).
Eventually ... Your sim can catch a day's worth of Perfect, High-Quality Angelfish ...
they then use to catch ever increasing Quality and Value Deathfish.
I have Sims that not only catches Perfect Deathfish, but Deathfish worth upwards of 6K Simoleons each.
It should also be noted that if you stock a pond with Deathfish, your Sim can catch them any time of day, and any quantity.
That is not the same as if you add a Deathfish Spawner.
If you want perfect Lobsters for your Restaurant, and the ability to catch them faster ...
Grow Perfect Onions to catch Prefect Tuna, to catch Perfect Lobsters.
The modifiers on Perfect Tuna and Perfect Lobsters will still increase slower than Angelfish and Deathfish.
It will take a while, but you can eventually catch Lobsters that come in around the 1200 Simoleon each range.
This can be beneficial for a purely Fishing Sim, as Saltwater doesn't freeze, and your Ponds will if playing with Seasons.
Of Course ... If your Sims can also build Bots, and produce. install the appropriate Trait Chips ...
(Sentience, Limitless Learning, Efficiency, Solar Powered, Simulated Emotions )
And keeps the Bot supplied with Perfect Bait ...

The Bot can catch Perfect Deathfish 24 hours a day without ever needing a Tune-Up or Recharge.
Happy Simming!
