Dredge Guide – How to unlock Mangrove Fishing
To gain access to Mangrove fishing, you must have 4x Research Parts saved for the Rod Upgrades tree. Initially, you’ll need to invest 2x Research Parts into researching a Flexible Fishing Pole. After this is done, you can research an Anti-Tangle Line, which costs 2x Research Parts more.
Once Mangrove fishing is unlocked, you will be able to catch a variety of new fish, including Goliath Tigerfish, Sergeant Fish, Gar, Longfin Eel, and Catfish.
It should be note that Chapter 4 will see you sent to the Twisted Strand, where you’ll need the skill of Mangrove fishing to advance, so be sure to plan ahead and allocate your time accordingly.
Dredge Guide – How to unlock Volcanic Fishing
Similar to Mangrove fishing, Volcanic fishing requires you to spend 4x Research Parts on the Rod Upgrades tree, with a start of 2x Research Parts into researching a Flexible Fishing Pole.
With Volcanic Fishing, you can catch Cusk Eel, Frilled Shark, and Pale Skate.
You must ration your Research Parts accordingly to have Volcanic fishing for Chapter 5, when you will be sent to Devil’s Spine and will require the ability to fish Volcanic waters.
To bring in a diverse catch each time you take your boat out, you should have a variety of fishing rods and catching equipment. For example, just leaving the starting area (The Greater Marrows) on your first expedition will take you from shallow to coastal depths. Because one of the primary goals is to sell fish and maximize profits, being able to fish in all possible areas will increase your profits from your catch.
Finding rare fish and valuable deep-sea curios and hidden treasures will require you to invest time and effort into researching specialized equipment and improving your boat’s capabilities. Selling these discoveries to locals can lead to learning more about each location and upgrading the boat to reach even more remote locations.
