The Sea of Thieves has gone beyond any game by putting the calming sport of fishing into the chaotic mess of plundering pirates. With 100 different possibilities of fish to catch and tons of accommodations, fishing is by far the most legal fun you can have in the Sea of Thieves. So pull up your camp chairs, sit back, and enjoy this in depth guide to The Sea of Thieves Fishing.

Bait

Each bait in Sea of Thieves has a specific location where you can find them, but the best location out of all is to check the barrels at any outpost or sea trader as they usually have a good random supply of your creepy crawly friends. But, if the time comes where you need to find that perfect accessory to go with your fishing hook, here is where to find all of the bait in Sea of Thieves.

Splashtails

“A curious little fish which has kept many a pirate from starving at sea”

These splishing splashtails are the most common fish in all of the Sea of Thieves. Found nearly everywhere, they are easy to catch, and easy to eat, just be sure to cook them first.

Note:
Seafoam Splashtail can only be caught at night.

Pondies

“Also called ‘Marooned Sailor’s Supper’, these little fishies are a staple of islanders diets”

By FAR my favorite fish to catch, located on any island that has a pond (doesn’t connect to the ocean and has fish swimming in it). Best to fish from Mermaid’s Hideaway as the ponds there offer a great supply.

Note:
Moonsky Pondies can only be caught under the moon. (at night)

Plentifins

“Tastes like sunshine, blue skies and fresh air! Until a pirate comes along and undercooks it.”

Found only around the Isle of Plenty, these beautiful fish love to eat only the most delectable earthworms. Well worth the wait as they will look good as any pirate meal, just dont burn it.

Note:
Watery Plentifin can only be caught in the water at night

Wildsplashes

“These grumpy fish tend to taste a little salty, but they go down a treat with a grog.”

Freely roaming around The Wilds, these freedom fighting fish fancy to frolic fire free. Though they are ugly, they do make quite a tasty meal, when cooked right.

Note:
You guessed it, Coral Wildsplash are only able to be caught at night.

Wreckers

“A big, meaty fish that makes a hearty meal, but its face can easily ruin your appetite.”

These home wreckers are only found near the remains of your pirate brethren’s beloved boat. Guess those Sea Gulls were actually circling around to get a taste of the new inhabitants.

Notes:
Blackcould Wreckers can only be caught at a shipwreck in a storm! (hope your boat doesn’t sink too)
Moon Wreckers are only out at night, they’re full of surprises.

Battlegills

“When you’ve just had a nasty battle and you want some healthy food… nature provides.”

Battlegills are blood thirsty, thrill seeking Pisces. Always showing up anywhere is there is a battle ragging, so while your friends ensure you dont die, its up to you to make sure they dont go hungry.

Able to be caught near any active Skeleton
Fort or when being chased by a Skeleton Ship.

Note:
Bittersweet Battlegills (say that 10 times fast) are Mischievious Midnight Monsters. (only caught at night)

Devilfish

“A meaty fish with a tang of sulphur, the Devilfish suits a hardy palette.”

While many don’t see the danger in fishing for these Devilfish, the name alone should tell you who you may meet when trying to catch these sea swimmers. The Devilfish love to eat grubs, just make sure you warm them up in the water first.

Note:
Bet you couldn’t guess that the Firelight Devilfish can only be caught at night.

Ancientscales

“This rather serene-looking fish seems to have accepted its fate as a pirate’s dinner.”

The Ancientscale fish is native only to the Ancient Isles. While being lovers of Leaches, these fish may really just want to get a taste of Pirate, before the Pirate gets a taste of them.

Note:
Starshine Ancientscale are only able to be caught while the … stars … shine…
Who knew?

Stormfish

“Remember to de-snout before eating, or you’ll get an awfully sore throat.”

Only a true Fisherman will sail into the heart of the storm just to catch this prized catch. Just hope that you can reel in dinner before the lightning cooks you!

Stormfish are extremely territorial, so here is a list to see where each one can be found.
