How to Fish Speartuna
Tuff Joint Bait is Recommended Lure
The recommended lure to fish Speartuna is Tuff Joint Bait. It is confirmed that other lures such as Emerald Jitterbait can also be used to catch Speartuna, but it is much more difficult.
Get Lure From Side Mission
Tuff Joint Bait can be obtained from the side mission "The Catch of a Lifetime" from NPC Kanya at Base Camp in Scarlet Forest.
Slow Reel for bite
| Slow Reel | Slowly tilt up and down |
|---|
Speartuna bites by slowly tilting the L stick up and down to do a slow reel.
Fast Reel Before it Bite to Lure Closer
| Fast Reel | Quickly tilt |
|---|
When Speartuna notices the lure, start by quickly moving the L stick up and down to guide it as close as possible using "fast reel". By guiding the fish up close, you can shorten the time for maneuvering after the fish bite, making it less likely to fail. After guiding the fish to the front, reel in slowly to catch.
Catching Speartuna Requires Specific Controls
Once Speartuna bites, the game begins. The player needs to react according to Speartuna's movements, and if the player is slow to react, fishing fails.
Tilt the Stick in the Direction of the Speartuna
| Control | Tilt |
|---|
After Speartuna bites, Player must tilt the L stick in the direction of the fish's movement until it gets tired and stops moving.. Be careful as the Fish will run away if you fail to react in time.
Be Careful Not to Hit Obstacles
| Controls | Tilt |
|---|
Fish may move toward obstacles such as rocks, and if the player does not react in time, it will escape. If the fish is about to hit an obstacle, flick the stick in the opposite direction to guide the Fish.
Important to React When Speartuna Jumps
| Control | Tilt |
|---|
When the fish jumps, you need to move the stick in the direction it flew and press the R2 button. Be careful as the fish may run away if the player can't react in time. Speartuna may jump multiple times in a row, so focus on the control while fishing.
Start Reeling When the Fish Gets Tired and Stops Moving
| Control | Once the fish stops moving, tilt |
|---|
Doing the steps mentioned above will eventually make Speartuna to get tired and stop moving. This is a chance to catch, so keep pulling the reel until it starts moving again. Pull and lure the fish towards the player to catch.
