Welcome to Spear Fishing! This comprehensive guide will help you master the game.

Starting Out: When you first join, you'll spawn at the dock with a Basic Harpoon (free). This harpoon deals 100-200 damage, perfect for catching common fish.

Basic Controls: Use WASD to move, mouse to aim, and click to throw your harpoon. Watch your aim - the closer you are, the more accurate your shot!

First Location: Start at Beginner River (Level 1+). This area has 9 fish species including Red Carp, Anchovy, and Goldfish - perfect for learning!

Selling Fish: Return to the dock and sell your catches to earn coins. Common fish give 5-12 coins each, which adds up quickly.

Early Upgrades: Save 300 coins for the Refined Harpoon (250-500 damage). This is your first major upgrade and will significantly improve your fishing speed.

Daily Rewards: Don't forget to claim daily login rewards! Day 1 gives 50 coins, and Day 7 gives a free Carbon Speargun worth 300 Gems!

Money-making is essential for progression. Here are proven strategies:

Early Game (Level 1-5): Farm at Beginner River. Focus on Red Carp and Anchovy - they spawn frequently and sell for 5-12 coins each. Aim for 1000+ coins per session.

Mid Game (Level 5-15): Unlock Rushing Stream at Level 5. Here you can catch Rare fish like Swordfish (7.35 Kg max) and Sailfin Fish (7.28 Kg max) which are worth much more.

Late Game (Level 15+): Island Center Lake unlocks at Level 15. Epic fish like Rainbow Carp, Golden Algae Eater, and White Butterflyfish spawn here. These are your money makers!

Use Bait Strategically: Worm Bait (1000 Coins) attracts Common fish. Firefly Bait (2000 Coins) attracts Uncommon. Leech Bait (20 Gems) attracts Rare fish. Aromatic Bait (80 Gems) attracts Epic fish - use it for maximum profit!

Harpoon Progression: Upgrade your harpoon as soon as possible. Steel Harpoon (2000 Coins, 800-1600 damage) is a great mid-game option. Save for Guardian Trident (100,000 Coins, 5000-10000 damage) for end-game.

Pro Tip: Fish during both Day and Night! Some fish only spawn at specific times. Check our Spawn Times page for details.

Rare and Epic fish are the ultimate goals. Here's how to catch them:

Know the Locations: Epic fish like Turtle, Golden Barb, Blue Netherfish, and Catfish spawn in Rushing Stream and Island Center Lake. Rainbow Carp is exclusive to Island Center Lake!

Use the Right Bait: Aromatic Bait (80 Gems) is essential for Epic fish. It costs 80 Gems but significantly increases spawn rates. Stock up when you can!

Harpoon Requirements: You need at least Abyss Trident (15,000 Coins, 2600-5200 damage) for reliable Epic catches. Divine Trident (50,000 Coins, 3300-6600 damage) is even better.

Spawn Times Matter: Some fish only appear during Day (like Sunfish, Golden Barb) or Night (like Blue Netherfish, Catfish, Red-Eyed Hexfish). Check spawn times before fishing!

Patience is Key: Epic fish have low spawn rates. Stay in one location and keep fishing - they will appear eventually!

Weight Matters: Epic fish have higher weight ranges. Rainbow Carp weighs 2.37 Kg, while Blue Netherfish can reach 3.48 Kg. Bigger fish = more coins!

Location Strategy: Island Center Lake has the most Epic fish (7 species). Focus here once you reach Level 15!

Choosing the right weapon is crucial for success. Here's the upgrade path:

Early Game Harpoons: Start with Basic Harpoon (free), then Refined Harpoon (300 Coins). These handle Common and Uncommon fish perfectly.

Mid Game Harpoons: Steel Harpoon (2000 Coins, 800-1600 damage) and Alloy Harpoon (8500 Coins, 1700-3400 damage) are great for Rare fish.

Late Game Harpoons: Abyss Trident (15,000 Coins) and Divine Trident (50,000 Coins) are essential for Epic fish. Guardian Trident (100,000 Coins, 5000-10000 damage) is the best coin-purchased harpoon!

Premium Harpoons: Forest Trident (210,000 Coins), Blazing Trident (450,000 Coins), and Star Trident (1,000,000 Coins) are end-game goals. Pirate Spear (5,000,000 Coins) is the ultimate weapon!

Spearguns: Basic Speargun (300 Gems, 38,000 damage) is great for ranged fishing. Golden Speargun (3000 Gems, 468,000 damage) is the best speargun available.

Upgrade Strategy: Focus on damage output. Higher damage = faster kills = more fish per hour. Save coins for Guardian Trident before going for premium options.

Crit Chance: Higher tier harpoons have better crit rates. Guardian Trident has 15% crit, while Pirate Spear has 18% crit!

Understanding each location is key to efficient fishing:

Beginner River (Level 1+): Your starting area with 9 fish species. Perfect for learning and farming coins. Common fish spawn here all day. Best fish: Red Carp, Anchovy, Goldfish.

Rushing Stream (Level 5+): Unlocks at Level 5 with 25 fish species. Great variety including Rare fish like Swordfish and Sailfin Fish. Epic fish: Turtle, Golden Barb, Blue Netherfish, Catfish.

Progression Tips: Don't rush to new locations. Master each area before moving on. Each location has unique fish that can't be found elsewhere.

Fishing Strategy: Start at Beginner River to build coins, then move to Rushing Stream for variety, and finally Island Center Lake for Epic fish farming.
