"The Anglerfish's face is illuminated by its head lamp, a beacon in the dark depths."

Statistics[]

Floating motionless and eerie in the darkness of the deep ocean, the Anglerfish is possibly the most iconic Large fish from that region. They are very slow-moving, and swim only slightly towards the hook, but when reeled up can serve as a good source of money in the early game.

Location[]

Anglerfish are easy to spot because of their bright glow. They are found throughout the ocean depths, from the Bay to the Open Sea, and usually swim a short distance above the seafloor.

Catching Guide[]

Strategies for catching the Anglerfish are much the same as catching any other Depths fish. Using the Sinker rod upgrade will help immensely, although it is also possible to get your hook down to this fish's level with a lucky cast using a rocket. Since the Anglerfish does not chase bait, the player must be able to guide the hook past its face in order for it to bite. Like all Large fish, Anglerfish require large bait.

While a Lightbulb is not essential for spotting the Anglerfish, it can be helpful when trying to avoid other, non-bioluminescent fish in the Depths that may steal bait.
