Fish & Chill in Kinlaig! | Highlands Fishing Preview

Since fishing is one of the most relaxing pastimes there is, you can buy a fishing rod from the local dealership in Kinlaig and waddle up to the next puddle to catch some fish! Isn't that nice? Let's check out how it works!

Places to Fish

🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟

Go near the water (a river, or the ocean) and equip the fishing rod. You can also take a sports boat out to sea and start catching fish on the open water if that's your preferred style.

There are some hot spots where more fish are to be found compared to others where you might get a bit more junk on the line. 

Oh, and yes, you can also catch fish outside Kinlaig if you prefer to fish around Riverbend Springs, Hutan Pantei, or Zielonka. Wherever there's water...

Baiting Fish

🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟

To start the fishing challenge, press and hold the action button to cast your bait into the water. The longer you hold the button, the farther your bait will be thrown.

Now you have to wait for a fish to take the bait. An indicator will appear when it does. Press the action button at the right moment! Otherwise, the fish will escape and leave you standing alone at the shore in shame.

Reeling Them In

If you reacted in time, the fish catching will begin. Now, pay attention: The bar on the right has two components: the fish, which jiggles up and down, and the bait, which you control by holding down the action button. Hold down the button to raise the bait. Release the button to lower it.

Follow the fish up and down with the bait until it gets tired. Wear it down to reel it in! Keep at it to improve your fishing skills and maybe get rewarded! Or get some junk. Trash happens...
