Mine resources
Mine Fish, Bugs and Forage
Mine-specific fish and floor finds fill collection goals and provide resources that cannot be gathered from surface routes.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Mine Fish, Bugs and Forage
Mine floors with fishing pools and visible floor-specific forage or bugs; use the elevator to reach unlocked target bands.
Before you go
- Access to the Mines and the target floor band.
- Fishing Rod obtained after Terithia’s letter for pool fishing.
- Inventory room and the target’s season, water, weather, shadow, or floor conditions.
Farming steps
- Choose one fish or find and check its listed season, water type, weather, shadow size, and floor restriction.
- Confirm the Fishing Rod is available if the target requires angling; do not enter expecting to fish without it.
- Use the elevator to reach a floor you have opened that matches the target’s floor range.
- Inspect the floor for its pool and visible forage or bugs; collect only items relevant to your goal if space is limited.
- Cast in the matching pool and use shadow size and bite behavior to select eligible fish rather than casting blindly.
- Keep a first copy for the Museum or a request, then store additional useful items.
- Leave through the available route and note any conditions that need a later return.
- Mine pools and surface ponds, rivers, and ocean are separate water types for fishing eligibility.
- A floor restriction is part of the target; the right season alone does not make it catchable on every floor.
Repeat, collect and use
Fishing and visible gathering can be repeated whenever the target’s conditions and accessible floor are available. Seasonal or weather-bound fish require a later matching opportunity.
Common mistakes
- Fishing the wrong water type cannot produce the target; match the named pool first.
- Ignoring a floor, weather, or shadow condition wastes casts; verify each condition before traveling.
- Donating or shipping duplicates before keeping a needed request item can create another trip; reserve active goals.
When to stop or switch
Stop once the first needed copy and any request quantity are secured; switch to the next collection target or leave before the run becomes unsafe.
