How can I catch fish consistently?
I'm doing the Kitty Catering mission and I'm trying to catch fish. I've gotten the "A fish is eyeing your lure!" message a few times and I've tried to "entice it" by changing the speed I reel in my line. However, I can't seem to entice the fish enough to catch anything.
My understanding of "changing reeling speeds" is holding down R2 for different lengths of time and moving the L stick back and forth. Is this not right? What am I supposed to do?
Note: I've since caught a few fish and finished the quest, but I still do not understand how to catch fish consistently. They inexplicably lose interest some times, but go straight for the bait other times, despite me not changing how I'm attempting to catch them. Is there a trick to this?

Some fish, such as bass, are capable of learning fishing patterns. If you drop the same lure in every time, the fish may get wise to it.Why am I not catching any fish?
A popper makes a loud splooshing sound on the surface and when fished right can attract a fish's attention. There are also crankbaits with rattles inside them which help to attract fish. This tactic is especially useful on days when visibility is poor, as the fish will rely on their hearing more than their sight.The Secret Easiest Way to Catch Saltwater Fish
