Sea of Thieves Fishing Guide: How to Catch and Sell Fish

Surprisingly enough, catching a fish inSea of Thievesisn’t as simple as many other games. When you initially hook one, they’ll squirm and struggle to get away, and you need to counter their movements to reel them in. Not to worry, though! When you read this guide, you’ll understand how to do this and become a pro angler in no time.

Step One: Equip your Fishing Line

Step one is the easiest part and just requires a few button presses. You’ll see what you need to do based on which platform you’re playing the game in the lists below.

Step Two: Catch the Fish

This part is tricky and can be frustrating the first couple of times if you don’t know the mechanics. We’ve provided instructions below to catch the fish once you’ve cast your line.

Step Three: Sell it for rewards!

You can sell the fish raw, undercooked, cooked, and over-cooked. Selling it to The Hunter’s Call representatives when it’s perfectly cooked will net you the biggest reward for that particular fish type. However, selling it overcooked will earn you the lowest reward, so be sure to check how long each fish takes to cook properly. Listed below are The Hunter’s Call representatives' names and locations willing to purchase fish from you.

Once you master your fishing skills, you’ll find this is a decent and fun way to pass the time while you and your crew are sailing across the ocean. It can also land you a lot more income as you do other quests, so be sure not to let those fish spoil in the ocean!
