Tips for Fishing Success
  • Some of these fish are pretty rare, so don't get discouraged if you don't find them right away. Keep trying!
  • Using the right lure is key. Make sure you've got the Sinking or Normal lure equipped depending on what you're after.
  • Don't forget about those special masks and songs! They're not just for show; they can help you find specific fish or even lure them out.
  • For the boss fish, like the Colossal Catfish or Ferocious Pirarucu, you might need to do a little something extra to get their attention. Check the 'Special Info' column for clues!
