Strong Hook

Strong Hook is a perk and statistic in Fishing, increasing the chance that caught fish are a higher weight.

Each weight of fish has the following catch chances:

Weight	Base Catch Chance	Maxed Upgrade Chances (20)	Maximum Obtainable Chances (90)
	90.3%	70.9%	3%
	7.5%	22.5%	75%
	2%	6%	20%
	0.2%	0.6%	2%

Each perk point the player has increases their Weight Multiplier by +0.1, increasing the chance that fish caught are Large or higher.

Average Chance = 1 - (Large Chance + Massive Chance + Gargantuan Chance)
Large Chance = 0.075 * ((0.1 * Strong Hook) + 1)
Massive Chance = 0.02 * ((0.1 * Strong Hook) + 1)
Gargantuan Chance = 0.002 * ((0.1 * Strong Hook) + 1)
