You gain experience for every successful creature you collect with the Critter Net in Fae Farm.
To level up the skill quickly, just catch everything you see — frogs, snails, bees, wisps, and anything else. You don’t even need to empty your bags.
Critters collected will yield EXP even if your bag is full. You’ll just leave the critter where you caught it. You can always go back to pick it up later.
