Fish

Reel has dozens of kinds of fish and sea creatures to catch, from tiny gobies in the harbor to colossal sea dragons at the edge of the world. Each has a rarity: Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary or Mythic. Every fish you land also has its own length, so most come in around the usual size for their kind, but now and then you’ll hook a tiny one or a giant.

Fish live by region and water. The Sheltered Bay around the harbor holds the small, common fish you start with, while the biggest and rarest live in the Outer Waters, where your boat needs the Outer Passage and your rod needs the strength to land them. Below, the fish are grouped by region; each fish’s page shows where it bites, how it fights and the weather it likes best.

Your first catch of each kind goes into your catch booklet for good, along with your largest catch of it, even after you sell the fish. What you catch goes into the fishbowl of the boat you’re on, where you can sell it or take a fish out and hold it to your pet to help it grow.

The warm, clear waters around the harbor, open to every boat, with small fish to start on and the bay’s rarest inside its island rings.

Bright, clear reef waters beyond the bay, open once your boat has the Reef Passage.

Dark, stormy and volcanic waters far from the harbor, for boats with the Storm Passage.

The farthest, strangest waters and the biggest fish in the sea, for boats with the Outer Passage.
