Crabpots + Deluxe Bait = No silver fish

[Smol Brain]

I have 30-40 crab pots and produce my deluxe bait from deluxe worm bins. I am also level 10 mariner. However, I'm not sure if this a bug but using deluxe baits on crab pots yield me no silver quality fish. Anyone knows how to fix this bug?

I was reading the wiki and found this "Using certain types of specialized types of bait will provide additional benefits, assuming the player does NOT have the Mariner profession" but it also said this "If the player has the Mariner profession, only Deluxe Bait provides an additional benefit, namely still increasing the quality of Crab Pot fish to silver" and this makes me think:

The Mariner profession makes the crab pot trash inmune, maybe this upgrade is blocking the chance of getting silver quality? Like you get good loot at the cost of no rarity? (but it says deluxe bait increase the chance of silver quality, pretty weird)

Sorry but I've never used this crab pot professions, instead I use the Fisher/Pirate Professions and I'm getting silver quality using deluxe bait in the pots.

In conclusion it seemm it has something to do with that Mariner profession you mention or maybe not, I don't know. You could try changing your professions in the sewers and trying again with the crab pots.

I have tested this in-game and it's true if you have the Mariner profession putting Deluxe Bait in the Crab Pot won't produce Silver quality fishes.

when I was testing things I tried to put mussel bait into the crab pots to hope to get more mussels to buy mango trees.

it doesn't care what you bait the pots with, they just get baited. the yield is the same
