The sparkling fishing spots?
Hi, I searched this up on internet but everyone says it means mermaid is fishing there but actually, I didn't purchase Island Living but still can see the sparkling ones. My sim has completed fishing ...
Forum Discussion
The sparkle you are asking about is a certain interaction that a mermaid can do that causes the option to catch more different types of fish at that spot. It is called Aquatic Lure.
This is what it says over at the Carl Sims site on how to do this.
Here is the information for the patch notes that were added back in June about fishing, it talks about the sparkles you are seeing.

Island Living's Mermaids can use an ability called, "Aquatic Lure" on fishing spots. This costs 30 hydration, so top off before you use it. When this spell is cast, the Sim pulls out a big conch and blows. The horn sounds and a glow appears on the fishing spot. Now fishermen at this spot fish as though they're 2 levels higher, and fish catch rates are improved (as opposed to treasure/seaweed). This effect lasts at a minimum of several hours.
