#Large bamboo nets don't work properlly

Hiya @gilded rover. Thanks for your report!
Do you happen to have a video of the issue? Also, can you let me know how many in-game days it has been since you placed the large bamboo fishing net in its current location? 😮
I added the the bamboo nets in summer and from then till fall the large nets done catch anything, I also added bait in them and nothing, The small ones work fine but they only catch small fish.
The problem is that i don’t understand how are they working
Maybe i am doing something wrong
All i got was that the small bamboo nets catch only one fish and the large one catches 3 of the same
Plus the small nets always catch daily the same fish
There is no variety in what the net is catching
I have experimented with the Large bamboo nets in every season except Fall season, Overall, I can only catch big fishes in the large bamboo net like sturgeon, gator gar, arapaima, swordfish and yellowfin tuna when its (1) raining/storm/snowing/blizzard and (2) when these fishes are in their seasons.
Sturgeon is in summer and winter, it can also be seen in spring but i think its been programmed to catch gator gar during spring cuz i think its also a rare fish and can only be found during spring. Sturgeon can also be found in the garden lane river, at the river in front of the carpenter's house, and in the deep forest too.
Gator gar can be found in forest river and lake during spring
Arapaima can be found in the forest river only during its winter season but if you put small bamboo nets in savannah you can get them everyday even without baits.
Swordfish can be found near zarah's boat during its seasons winter and spring.
Lastly, Yellowfin tuna can be found in the beach and near zarah's boat during its season which is in winter only.
Besides rare fishes there are also some common and uncommon fishes that can be found in the large nets like grouper, cobia, and yellowtail.
Also, I don't know why but only small bamboo nets can catch fishes in the Savannah but can catch uncommon, common, and rare fishes. Another thing is, if you maxed the large bamboo nets into three caughts and leave them after a week they turn into trash
this also applies if you didn't get them on time before the season changes 
Anyways, I put some pictures as proofs and you can also see the seasons when I caught them, I experimented these using the weather conch to make it storm for straight days
I also don't know anything in Fall season cuz im still in summer
I will update this when I get to the season 
Issues: I would also like to address that sometimes there are bamboo nets that can't be removed no matter how hard I try which are mostly large bamboo nets
maybe its because of the position I pu them in that makes it hard to be pickaxed with? idk i need help with that 
I usually remove the nets with my pickaxe
