Field notes
The current English database lists 139 aquatic creatures, including freshwater, saltwater, coral, deep-sea and fantasy fish.
Equip the Fishing Rod, cast into a valid water tile and reel in when the bite indicator appears. Different waters and islets have different fish pools.
Rare and Stellar fish are often tied to a specific habitat, season, time or weather. Islet-only species may require a Star Anchor and a trip away from your planet.
Sell prices vary by quality and size. Use the sortable cards below to compare base prices, then check the fishing guide for spawn tips.
