I FIGURED OUT HOW TO RECOVER FROM OVERFISHING.

So I had been running 3-3 pretty much non-stop since the event started, and around 14 fish, the drop rate began to slow and pretty much stopped outright at about 24.

I tried just not doing anything for about 2 days but that didn't improve drop rate.

I tried waiting for the weekly Sunday quest reset, and that didn't improve drop rate.

TODAY HOWEVER, I decided to spend the day running 4-3 to level up some destroyers. After 20+ or so runs, I went back to fishing and just like that, I was getting an average of 1 fish every other run, provided I hit a fishery node. I believe it's a combination of time plus completing other maps that allows the fish to repopulate.

TL;DR - If you cannot get anymore fish from World 3, spend a day clearing non-fishery maps like World 2 and World 4, then give it another try.
