The opportunity to go fishing is one of many activities that can be done in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla while you are not occupied with the quests. There are several ways to accomplish this activity. The fish you catch in this game will yield lots of rewards for you, from small runes to ingots that will upgrade your weapons when you catch them!
Fishing Guide: How to Fish?
Even though fishing alone is a simple activity to engage in, you will be able to unlock the full potential of it by building your own Fishing Hut. It will then be up to young Arth to explain to you what kind of fish you will be able to obtain and for what reward you will be able to obtain them.
Find a Good Spot to Fish
If you want to go fishing, you need to find a river or a larger body of water where you can do so. If you so wish, you can do this from your Longship. Holding down the ‘L2’ key and tapping the ‘R2’ key when comfortable casting your fishing line is suggested. The best place to cast your line is when you see schools of fish disrupting the surface of the water when you cast your line.
Be Patient and Wait for the Bite
A fish will bite your bait in two ways: swimming towards the hook, hearing a sloshing sound, and experiencing vibration on your controller.
Hook the Fish and Reel It In
You can reel in a fish that has bit your bait by tapping the’ X’ key in a Fish that has bit your bait. Make sure you control your line while mashing ‘X’ to catch the fish. The fish will try to escape, so be sure to do so while mashing ‘X’. Additionally, this creates tension in your line, which may break it. Make sure you catch them as soon as possible!
The Good Fishing Holes
The world of Valhalla is filled with different types of fish. Talking to Arth will give you some insight into what fish to focus on, but building the Trading Post will be required. There, you can purchase Fantastic Fish and Where to Find Them from Ayli, which shows you where different kinds of fish are found.
