But we found two techniques that can help. There’s no UI element to tell you when a fish is done cooking. In order to increase the value of your catch, you’ll therefore want to find a campfire on any of the islands and cook the fish in a pan (F on PC, X on Xbox One). However, the amount earned for uncooked fish is less. Once you have a few fish to sell, you can then trade them to Merrick and his family, in order to unlock commendations and earn coin. Taking the fish off the line is important, because you will lose the fish if you die with it still on the line (we learnt this the hard way). If not, you’ll have to empty your inventory first into a barrel. This will add it to your food inventory, if you have room. Once you have a fish, you can then take it off the hook (using F on PC, X on Xbox One). Once it stops, reel it in as fast as you can (hold RMB on PC, RT on Xbox One), then repeat the process until caught. Pull in the opposite direction to where the fish is swimming and after a while the fish should stop thrashing in the water. Once it does, you will need to tire it out before attempting to reel it in (using ASD keys on PC, left analogue stick on Xbox One). Also, be sure to leave as much room as possible to either side of you, as if the shore or a ship should interrupt the line between you and the fish it will break.Īfter a while, a fish should appear to bite your line. Don’t worry about being close to any of the fish you see swimming in the water, as fish will appear regardless of where you aim. Once you’ve decided what type of fish it is you want to catch, head to the appropriate area and cast your line out (by pressing LMB on PC, RT on Xbox One). These are much larger fish that put up a bit more of a fight. It’s also worth noting that there are trophy variants for each fish type. Simply press the RMB button before the fish bites (the LT on the Xbox One) and the line will retract. This way you can avoid wasting bait on Splashtails when you want to catch another rarer fish type. Learn to identify each fish from their pictures in the reputation menu. We recommend taking the fort method, because you can pretty easily avoid aggroing the skeletons on an active skull fort (the cannons will still fire at you on approach though) if you avoid stepping on the island or use a rowboat. Battlegills – Battlegills spawn around active forts and in battles against skeleton crews, and demand grubs for bait.They spawn in the Devil’s Roar region of the map to the south east, and require grubs as bait. Devilfishes – Devilfishes are another tough species to catch.It’s best to attempt to catch them when you have another player at hand who can repair damage caused by the storm. But you’ll also need to attach leeches in order to goad them over to your line. Stormfishes – Unsurprisingly, Stormfishes occur inside of storms.You’ll need leeches to tempt them onto your line. Ancientscales – Ancientscales spawn in the Ancient Isles (the southern region of the map).

Wreckers – Wreckers are located near shipwrecks, which appear below a flock of birds, and need worms as bait.Again, no bait is necessary to catch them. Pondies – Pondies can be caught anywhere in fresh water (though we recommend fishing at Hidden Spring Keep, as no enemy skeletons will spawn there, if the fort is inactive).Islehoppers – Islehoppers spawn in the shallows surrounding islands and can be caught without bait.They spawn anywhere on the map and require no bait to catch. Splashtails – Splashtails are the most common type of fish.
