Moon phases and time of clock also affect, so you can not find fish at one spot at night, but will at day. Or you won't. There's probably also other secrets (some combinations which always result in loss of lure), but i still didn't figure if it's intended or it's just bad RNG.
Some fish I mentally refer to as "rare" because they're particularly sensitive to time factors (I briefly referred to this existing in the sheet). Eel are a good example of one of those, but another are the cave fish. They prefer noon or midnight depending on the fish (which I find pretty funny).
The fisherman's request magic fucking destroys lures and is pointless as a result. You're right that some condition results in a lot of broken lures, but I've not tested it. I do know that I've noticed "low catch chance = broken lure", but that might be "lures that don't have 100% land chance break when failing to catch". Seems plausible, but I won't be testing it this world probably.
