Very concise, yet detailed guide. 🙂 The only thing I would like to point out is that there's a locational aspect to catching Stormfish too: Ancient Stormfish can only be caught in a storm in the Ancient Isles, Wilds Stormfish in The Wilds and Shores Stormfish in the Shores of Plenty.
Also note that if you can find a storm at either uncharted island N-13 or the sea dog outpost at K-11, go there, any daytime stormfish will be a guaranteed shadow stormfish as neither islands are within the boundaries of any regions. Also just a tip for wreckers, fish from the shipwreck's masts (if any are sticking out) to avoid your line breaking from the fish running into the shipwreck.
On the topic of Shipwrecks, make sure to loot all the barrels on the Shipwreck, they commonly contain cooked Fish. I myself found a cooked Blackcloud Wrecker inside a barrel, so I'd definitely recommend doing this in order to find some of the rarer fish. Side note: you can also find every other kind of cooked meat, including Megalodon and Kraken.
Oh boy your telling me, I got lucky and got the rare trophy stormfish, a bunch of wreckers, and literally over 75% percent of what I found was burnt and went for 100 good lmao
@@NovaNova11. Yeah I found this out today doing the event. I assumed like the other fish that the name of the fish corresponds with the location but I didnt take into account the name of the "isle hopper" which in hindsite makes perfect sense. Lol
i've found that a good spot for devilfish is north of the island at X11: Scorched pass, as the nearest volcano is barely in range of the pass, and if you stay in title card range, you can fish for them without worrying about skellies, volcanos, megs, or krakens.
It isnt mentioned, you can expedite catching fish by very slowly reeling while a fish is fighting. it can mean the difference between 2 fights and 4 if you are making slight on/off reels while the fish is fighting, judge when to let off by the sound of the line tension. trophy fish break off much easier so reel way slower while a trophy fish is fighting.
Top for devil fishing: near Y-23 there is a rock formation which, while it technically can be a spawn location for a skeleton fleet, is out of range for any volcanos, as well as being good cover from any sight lines. If you go there and park behind it, you can fish away to your hearts content without worrying about volcanos! Just make sure you bring a storage crate of grubs
Thanks for the nice guide! Been reading quite a bit on the requirements for each type of fish, but seeing this well explained in a video definately helped to clear some insecurities in details! :)
Thank you. Awesome video very well done. ALTHOUGH!!! I would not recommend having this windowed over while playing the game. Got to the wreckers section and the cannonballs being fired with the ship being hit sounds in the background had me freaking out looking all over before I realized it was in the video. LOL.
So, one interesting thing I found out. I was fishing for Wreckers and Skeleton music started but no ship showed up. I had a thought and started fishing with grubs. Sure enough, I caught a Battlegill. If you're too close to a wreck the skeleton ship can't spawn but counts for Battlegills.
I went to the seaport in the wilds and caught the night wildsplash on my second cast and immediately after caught the muddy one the next cast. Compare this to 40 minutes trying to catch the umber splashtail lol great guide I'm getting through these fish rather quick!
Ok,funny enough,I was playing sea of thieves with my friends the other day,and not only did I catch my first umbra splashtail ,but it was a TROPHY,how rare is that?
For anyone watching this now, cooking the fish is absolutely worth it now. Just go to a seefortress, clear it, and start cooking with the 4 pots in the kitchen! Edit: You can also get a little extra fish and meat from the barrels, just make sure to not forget a storage crate!
Anybody notice how most rare fish are white and pink? That includes the Shrouded Ghost. Are they tiny fish versions of the Shrouded Ghost? Children, perhaps? The theories shall continue!
Me and a friend where doing the fishing event and we where getting the wreckers and we needed the trophies we caught one already but we needed 2 more and we caught 2 snow wreckers before we caught the trophy wreckers we needed
I’m trying to get smoke ancient scale I caught almond sapphire starshine bone I feel like smoke ancient scales are really hard to get how do I get them
