Recent i made a post showing how i already bought everything on the heist but now is the fishing time.
I will write a guide after I have fished for several hours.

1: Is better to fish with cellphone or control more than a keyboard, because you can skip the animation of catch if you spam the button.

2: The exact amount of XP needed from lvl 1 to 10 is 162900xp, catching 500 fish gives you approximately 24k or 25k XP, it means its around 3260 or 3400 fishes to max level, this is probably 90%/95% accurate.

3: Just buy the universal bait, ignores the other ones.

4: When you end your City Stamina selling fishes you can still sell fishes but you only got the Scale Coins.

5: I will make a list of fish rarity (the color) along with their stamina and how much XP they give:

Green Fish, 5 Fish Stamina, around 20 xp.

Blue Fish, 6 Fish Stamina, around 40 xp.

Purple Fish, 9 Fish Stamina, around 110 xp.

Yellow Fish, 12 Stamina, around 300 xp.

Rare "Yellow", 15 Stamina, 999 xp (Confirmed by reddit user from comments).

Extra info:

1: There's a visual bug on mobile where spamming the fishing button after catching a legendary fish makes it look like a green fish, but it's just a visual bug.

2: There's a small chance that a fish will escape no matter how much fishing line you have.

3: When you get the purple rod, it's almost impossible for the yellow fish to escape.

4: Level 9 to 10 is 56k xp, When you reach approximately 28k/30k XP from level 9 to 10, that's when you'll finally get the legendary fishing rod.

5: The rarity of the fishing rod does not affect how much XP the fish give.

EDIT:

About the purple and legendary fishing rod:

My understanding of the price of the fishes based on the desc of the rods: when the fish weight more it gives you more Scale Coins, idk if this is true but this is what i think.

When i was using the purple rod selling 500 fishes give me around 9/10k Scale Coins.

Idk the case of the legendary rod since i stop fishing after reaching lvl 10, but if someone catch 500 fish with the legendary rod can told us if it gives aswell around 9k/10k Scale Coins or more after selling.

And about the "beetles", is literally 200k of Scale Coins for buy all, even if the legendary rod gives you more Scale Coins it will takes forever to buy all of that, probably in the future when more characters comes out or more baits are on there it will be more easy to farm more of these Scale Coins, but not for now.

I cant post this on the other nte sub because i dont have enough karma.

Annoying bugs I hope they fix in the NTE Heist.

1: In co-op, when fighting enemies near lasers, when you use your ultimate, the enemies push you towards the lasers while you're in the ultimate animation, causing the ultimate to be canceled even during the animation.

2: There's a small chance that enemies will become invisible when passing through yellow or blue portals.

3: There's a small chance that a phone booth will randomly close, even displaying the message that a door has closed (this only happened to me 4 times in over 50 rounds afterpatch).

4: There's a small chance that bosses will noclip the map and land on the "ceiling" undermesh (It only happened to me like 3 or 4 times afterpatch).

5: There's a small chance that when you use a skill that makes your character jump backward, you'll fall off the map being full undermesh (it's annoying because you have to press the "unstuck" button on your phone).

6: In co-op, if a player leaves right at the start of the heist, it teleports you infinitely back to the beginning of the heist.
