Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4 Fish Locations And How To Catch Them

A new season of Fortnite means a new fish collection. And regardless of your reasons for reading this guide – whether you’re a completer, someone hoping there’s a reward for catching them all later in the season, or just curious about the best fishing spots – we have all the up-to-date information available on this season’s fishing scene for you.

But before we get to the list of fish, a more basic briefing. You can catch fish for the collection in three game modes: Battle Royale (Build and No Build), Team Rumble, and Party Royale. The storm moves way too fast in Team Rumble these days for this mode to be a great place to leisurely fish, so it’s best not to bother if you’re just trying to fish. And some of the fish have to be caught in battle royale – while some of the best spots are around the edges of the map, they’re often not that dangerous.

Fishing in Party Royale

The easiest way to catch these fish is to go to Party Royale, a small social hub island where you cannot be killed. In this mode you should be able to catch the fish listed as available somewherein coastal zone or in desert areas. And that’s almost all of the fish – actually all but four of the 23 fish currently in the collection. Any fish in the inland rivers or fishpond northeast of downtown is a desert fish, and the coast is, of course, a coastal region. And, even better, the fishing holes in this mode regenerate over time, so it’s not possible to consume them all while you’re there.

To fish in Party Royale you will need a rod from a free machine, but these only come in gray quality. The only way to get a pro fishing rod in Party Royale is to catch one while fishing – like catching a gun instead of a fish in Battle Royale. This means it’s a lot harder to get a Pro rod in Party Royale than in BR, as in BR mode you can simply upgrade a regular rod at an upgrade station for gold, rather than relying on a random drop to do so have to.

Perhaps the best reason to go fishing in Party Royale? Some fish can only be caught at night, and Party Royale has its own day/night cycle. so you most of time no need to hope that your battle royale will load at the right time of day. Most of time.

That said, in my experience, the fish that require a pro fishing rod are far more likely to show up in Battle Royale than Party Royale. But with RNG involved, my anecdotal evidence might not mean much on that front.

Where to fish in Battle Royale?

On the Battle Royale map is the coastal zone are similarly easy to figure out – these are the bodies of water across the island or in the bay on the west side of the map. The desert region is similarly easy to spot at the southern end of the map. The other three regions are more ambiguous.

fish out swampy areas Located in Loot Lake, in the center of the map north of Tilted Towers. fish out wooded areas can be found in the eastern regions of the map: the river east of Coney Crossroads and each of the small ponds between Herald’s Sanctum and Tilted Towers.

and mountainous landscapes are the snowy parts of the map in the northwest. There is one particular fishing spot that is best suited to this area – a tiny little island off the west coast that is always surrounded by fishing holes. It’s arguably the best place to catch fish in Fortnite right now, period. Here it is on the map.

On the Battle Royale map, the coastal biomes are not mutually exclusive – for example, the ocean south of Chonker’s Speedway will contain both coastal and desert fish.

As mentioned above, there are some fish that require a pro fishing rod that is easy to get in Battle Royale. If you can’t find one…or a harpoon gun, which also counts as a pro rod– All you need is a regular gray staff, which can be obtained in any of those barrels that stand next to each body of water, and you can upgrade it at an upgrade station at any gas station for 250 gold. Dead easy.

Almost all fish must be caught in a fishing hole – those spots in a body of water where you can see fish grouped tightly and jumping around. The exceptions are Small frieswhich can also be fished without a fishing hole, although you will also catch lots of rusty cans and small amounts of ammunition.

One last handy tip before we get into the collection itself: if you’re playing alone and encounter someone else at your fishing spot, try to play nice. So many great Fortnite memories come from those moments when you face an opponent and Not fight them. And if you’re trying to catch an elusive White Slurfish, it certainly can’t hurt to have a de facto teammate to protect you.
