Fishing Spot and Catch Planning
Choosing a fishing spot and time around a target catch makes fishing a more reliable supply activity.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Fishing Spot and Catch Planning
The River, Sea, and Waterfall fishing spots, with the Waterfall north of the stone bridge west of the graveyard.
Before you go
- A Fishing Rod, such as the Simple Fishing Rod from the Lighthouse Keeper.
- Access to fishing interactions at the selected spot.
- Bait suited to the target fish where bait is applicable.
- A target fish or recipe need to guide the trip.
Farming steps
- Open the fishing guide and identify the target fish’s listed location and time conditions.
- Choose the matching spot rather than assuming all locations share the same catch table.
- Buy or bring a Fishing Rod and equip bait appropriate to the target options.
- Travel to the selected River, Sea, or Waterfall fishing interaction.
- Check the fishing screen’s available options and cast when the target is represented.
- Follow the casting prompts and collect catches as they land.
- Keep target fish and recipe needs; sell or process only the remaining surplus.
- If the target is not available, adjust the spot or time according to its listed conditions instead of repeatedly casting blindly.
- Carry enough inventory room to separate target fish from incidental catches.
Repeat, collect and use
Fishing trips are repeatable, but catch composition varies with location, time, and bait; a specific fish is not guaranteed on each cast.
Common mistakes
- Using one spot for every target: select by the fish’s catch table.
- Ignoring time conditions: come back when the target is available.
- Selling incidental fish before checking recipes: retain anything needed for cooking or quests.
When to stop or switch
Stop once the target amount is collected; switch spots or activities if the fish is not available at the current location and time.
