Fishing Checklist

Fields of Mistria Legendary Fish Guide

The four one-per-save catches, with the exact conditions that make each one appear.

Unlock them first

Reach Fishing level 30 and buy the Legendary perk for 80 Essence. On a qualifying day, the morning message says, "A legendary fish is nearby..." and shows a silhouette. Each variety can be caught once per save, so donate it before treating it as a spare.

A safer catch routine

  1. Read the morning message before leaving the farm.
  2. Go to the correct water type, not merely the correct region.
  3. Ignore the wrong shadow size to save time.
  4. After the catch, take it to the Fish Wing.

Common mistakes

  • The perk is required even when season and weather match.
  • Fish Bait does not replace the Legendary perk.
  • The four belong to a museum set. Selling the only copy can block that set on the save.
  • The full fish database covers rods, bait, traps, schools, and all ordinary fish.
