Equip the Professional Lure before you cast — the bait decides the pool, not where you stand. Selling is done by throwing the catch into a shopkeeper's mouth (hold the interact key), so a full inventory is the usual reason a run stalls.
A mid-to-late-tier catch. It is worth targeting once you own the Professional Lure, but check the table above — several other fish on the same lure sell for more, so pick the most valuable one you can reliably land.
