My starting evac shelter was close to a small pond that had fish in it. I early on created some fish traps from gallon jugs and have been successfully fishing it. It is now summer day 66 and when I activated my reloaded fish trap as I had been doing regularly I received the message "You doubt you'll have much luck catching fish here."

What would be the explanation for why I received the message? Did I fish out all the fish? Do the ponds dry up? I looked at the water and it says "shallow water" though I have no idea if it was shallow water when I was successfully fishing as I never looked at the water tiles.

I don't know about "fishing" ponds, I am guessing it is because the population is too small to sustain fishing.

I am guessing the message is saying that the area is not viable for fishing and whatever fish in there was probably caught.

I have only really done some fishing along the coast, as the fish lay their eggs in the water and replenish their numbers that way (I personally only really invest in sustainable butchery if I can help it)

I guess the water needs to be deeper or one needs to allow the fish to reproduce via their egg spawning, not too sure though as I haven't really dabbled much with fishing?
