    Swims-In-Deep-Water has given me a list of fish I should catch to improve my fishing skills. I should read the note to see what I need to catch.

    Swims-In-Deep-Water would like me to catch fish that can commonly be caught in streams and lakes in the warmer parts of Skyrim. Once I've caught one of each, I should return them to him. His field guide, Fishing Mastery, should provide details on each fish and how they can be caught. He mentioned that a copy is sitting on a shelf in the back room of the Riften Fishery.

    I read the first volume of Fishing Mastery, Swims-In-Deep-Water's field guide. All of the fish I need to catch can be caught in the warmer parts of Skyrim on a clear day. Goldfish and glassfish can only be caught in lakes, while pogfish are found in streams. Carp can be caught in both lakes and streams. I should be able to catch what I need by fishing of off the docks near the Riften Fishery, and along the river that leads to Ivarstead.

    I've given Swims-In-Deep-Water all of the fish he requested as proof of completing his fishing challenge. In return, he gave me a sum of gold, as well as a key to the Riften Fishery.
