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
The Trophy Meagre is one of the best-paying catches at Skårland Fjord, and it does not take exotic gear to land one. I take it on the bottom with Atlantic Herring, early in the morning, from a marked spot out on the fjord. The one in the photo below went 45.6 kg at 180.4 cm … Read more
The Giant Grouper is one of the true heavyweights at Kaiji No Ri, and it is exactly the kind of fish that makes a trip to Japan worth it. This is a boat fish that you catch on the bottom with heavy tackle and a big bait, and it pulls like a truck even when … Read more
Giant Trevally, or GT, is one of the most satisfying fish to land at Kaiji No Ri, and you do not need a boat to catch one. I do it from the shore at the Torii No Koto spot, casting into the water beside the rocks, and it works consistently once your rig is right. … Read more
Fishing Planet is usually a quiet, solitary game, but it does not have to be. Fishing Together is the co-op mode that lets you put friends or clubmates on your own boat and fish the same waterway at the same time, on one shared session. I host these runs regularly on my Level 106 account, … Read more
