An ancient war-turtle, its high mossy dome is plated in scutes seamed with glowing lime light and crowned by a ridge of huge ivory-and-bronze spikes. A hooked snapping beak, a heavy brow and big scaled front flippers finish the look. It is one of the rarer finds in the Sunlit Shallows, rising from the sand in a trail of bubbles, and once hooked it pulls like an anchor heading for the seabed.

  • Look for rising bubbles: they mark a hotspot where Spiked-Shell Turtle and its kind bite more often.
  • The weather doesn’t change how often it bites.
  • When it fights back it mostly dives. Slow your reeling down without stopping, then reel it in while it rests.

A Spiked-Shell Turtle can hatch from a Epic Bay Egg or a Legendary Bay Egg or a Mythic Bay Egg or a Celestial Bay Egg. As a pet its perk is Anchor. See Pets and Eggs.
