Exploration and progression
Pursue jumbo fish at the Great Desert Oasis
The Oasis supports jumbo fish with Fantastic Bait and contributes to the complete fish collection and Ocean Maid reward.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Pursue jumbo fish at the Great Desert Oasis
Clyde’s pond at the Great Desert Oasis.
Before you go
- Unlock fishing by speaking with Clyde at the Oasis.
- Buy Fantastic Bait and the required Jumbo Data from Clyde before targeting jumbo species.
- Use the Data Bank to identify whether Whale Shark, Dunkleosteus, or other collection entries remain.
Farming steps
- Visit Clyde at the Oasis and check that Fantastic Bait and the required Jumbo Data are unlocked.
- Select Fantastic Bait and fish at the Oasis pond, which supports jumbo fish.
- Complete the fishing interaction for each bite and inspect the Data Bank after the catch.
- If Whale Shark or Dunkleosteus is still missing, continue fishing at the Oasis and verify each new registration.
- Spend catch-earned Fishing Points at Clyde if another Fishing Data unlock is needed.
- Recheck the Data Bank against your collection goal, including any remaining non-jumbo entries.
- Stop once the desired jumbo entries or full fish collection reward condition is complete.
- The Oasis is a practical single stop for mixed-size collection, but use bait and Data that match the target class.
- Track Ocean Maid as a full-collection goal; catching the two named jumbo species alone does not complete every fish entry.
Repeat, collect and use
Casting can be repeated while pursuing missing fish or earning points for remaining Data. The collection is finite, and no particular catch is guaranteed on each attempt.
Common mistakes
- Fishing for jumbo species before buying Jumbo Data and Fantastic Bait: unlock the class first.
- Assuming the two jumbo entries alone unlock Ocean Maid: complete the full fish collection for that reward.
- Counting DLC fish in the base-game target: NIKKE DLC fish are outside this base-game route.
When to stop or switch
Stop after the target jumbo fish register, or continue checking other Data Bank entries until the full collection reward is achieved.
