The Mirror Carp is one of the easiest ways to start filling your catch list at Weeping Willow, and it is a good looking fish while you are at it. Its patchy, oversized mirror scales make it stand out from an ordinary carp, and it takes plain corn on a simple bottom rig without much … Read more
This is the biggest Giant Grouper I have landed anywhere. My Unique came in at 381.301 kg and 277.9 cm, near the very top of what the species reaches, and it paid 129,460 coins with 115,580 XP. I have written up this fish before at Kaiji No Ri, but that one was only a young … Read more
The Green Jobfish is the fish that finally gets you fishing bait on the bottom at Kaiji No Ri. Almost everything else on this map is a lure or trolling target, but the Green Jobfish is a reef-dwelling bottom feeder you catch by dropping a simple baited rig down to it. It is not a … Read more
The Atlantic Halibut is the fish the Norwegian Sea is proudest of. The game calls it the most sought after trophy in cold northern waters, and after landing a Unique at 250.625 kg and 271.8 cm for 85,223 coins and 137,069 XP, I understand why. That XP figure is the second highest of any fish … Read more
The Atlantic Cod is probably the most iconic fish you can pull out of Skårland Fjord. It is the species the Norwegian Sea is famous for, it takes both bait and lures, and it fights with a bit more weight behind it than the Haddock that shares its water. I landed one at 11.017 kg … Read more
Not every fish at Skårland Fjord is a 400 kg monster on a 1000 g sinker. The Haddock is the opposite end of the map, and that is exactly why it belongs in your rotation. It bites readily, it takes the same light workhorse rig I already run for Meagre and Hake, and it is … Read more
The European Sea Sturgeon is the heaviest fish I have ever landed at Skårland Fjord, and it pays more than anything else I have caught in Fishing Planet. Mine came in at 381.436 kg and 486.1 cm, and it returned 131,411 coins along with 177,926 XP from a single fish. That is nearly three times … Read more
The Porbeagle Shark is one of the biggest and best-paying trophies at Skårland Fjord, and it is the fish you bring the heavy rod out for. This is a fast open-ocean predator that you take on the bottom in deep water, and landing one pays out huge. My Trophy went 140.281 kg at 288.3 cm … Read more
The Spiny Dogfish is a small shark, and it is one of the more convenient catches at Skårland Fjord because it bites in the middle of the day, when the fjord’s low-light species have gone quiet. I take it on the bottom from a marked spot near Ranvika Marina, and the one below was a … Read more
The European Hake is not the biggest fish at Skårland Fjord, but it is one of the easier trophies to land once you know when and where to fish for it. It is a low-light predator that I take on the bottom with Lesser Sand Eel, in the early morning, from a marked spot out … Read more
