Once you get the hang of the fishing mini-game in Spiritfarer, catching fish is a breeze.

For those new to the game or who just need some advice, we’re here to help.

We’ll walk you through the basics of fishing in Spiritfarer and provide a comprehensive list of all the fish you can catch.

How To Fish

The fishing mini-game in Spiritfarer is unlocked at the beginning of the game. Start fishing by talking to the chair behind your ship’s quarters, past the Captain’s. Stella’s Everlight will be converted into a fishing rod when the fishing mini-game begins.

When you hear a bell ring, you’ve successfully caught something. Make sure to let go of the line when your fishing pole begins to turn red. You’ll lose the fish if you keep reeling after your pole goes red.

If you’re reeling in a fish, you may not feel any resistance at all. Rarer fish, such as tuna, are far more difficult to catch because of their high resistance. Try to be as patient as possible and concentrate on keeping time with the fish’s beat.

In addition to providing meals for your ship’s Spirits, any fish you catch can be sold in shops around the world or used to satisfy NPC errand objectives.

Spiritfarer Fishing Guide: How To Catch Fish

You’ll need to get into the mindset of a fisherman before you can begin fishing. To begin fishing, all you have to do is locate the fishing chair and interact with it. The bob will be thrown into the water at this point. To begin reeling in the fish, press and hold X on Xbox One, Square on PS4, Y on Nintendo Switch, and E on the keyboard as soon as the bob starts moving in the water. While reeling in your catch, you’ll notice the color of your rod changing from yellow to gold. In Spiritfarer, you can catch a standard fish by doing this. Tuna and Haddock are two examples of species that won’t be affected by this method of fishing.

Fish like Haddock and Tuna can only be caught if you keep an eye on the color of your rod. In contrast to while reeling in easy fish, the rod’s color will begin to change from orange to red. The string will snap if it turns totally red, preventing you from catching the fish. As soon as the rod’s color changes to orange, you must begin tapping the reel-in button repeatedly in order to catch these fish instead of simply hanging on to it. Holding the reel in button can be resumed once the color returns to yellow. To obtain your reward, fish, keep doing this till you do.

To summarize, if you want to catch fish in Spiritfarer, you’ll need to pay attention to the color of your fishing rod. You can capture all the fish in Spiritfarer, including Tuna and Jellyfish, using this approach.
