In How to Fish, selling raw fish gives you only base price. By launching fish into the air with the Pull Back Rod and eliminating them with trickshot conditions before they land, all active multipliers stack multiplicatively:

Airborne Kill+1.5x Multiplier
360 Spin Jump+1.5x Multiplier
Headshot / No-Scope+2.0x Multiplier
Campfire Grilled+1.5x Multiplier
