where to catch a PREDATOR fish

- - -

you need to catch 8 predator fishes to get the

Master Fisherman achievement

- - -

a "Shark" ? that's not a shark !

- - -

big fish / predator fish / shark type fish

officially the biggest predator fishes are called "Shark", even if most of them are far from being one.

those are the fishes or creatures which hunt you when you swim in the ocean on a planet. if you're not fast enough to get on shore or boat, they will swallow you & you'll lose one of the Booster Cards.

if you don't know anymore if you caught already a "Shark" on a planet, swim carefully near a shore for some time till the danger music starts.
cause the additional effect to catching a "Shark" is, it won't hunt you anymore on that planet. so if you caught it, there's no danger music.

the Where ? the spots to catch a "Shark"

- - -

afaik the spots where a "Shark" can be caught are random, same goes for the fishing spots themselves, which appear & disappear randomly on a planet.

so

"Sharks" can be caught on EVERY FISHING SPOT, there are no special spots.

i'll post here the spots where i caught the "Shark" on a planet. you can take the same spot or you can just take the next you come across, it might be as good to get a "Shark".

- - -

the How or the "Shark" arrow pattern

- - -

you have to cast your fishing rod between 20 up to even 70 times on a fishing spot till you get the option of a "Shark".

when you have such a chance you'll notice it at the pattern how the arrow flies.
you get ONE very fast arrow first.

then after the first is THROUGH, the next FAST arrow appears.

through, then the next.

after that the arrows are still pretty fast & they come more often.
try to catch AS MANY as you manage.
but you have to respond correctly to at least >>> 1 in 3 <<<.
if you get 3 missed arrows in a row, it means the "Shark" got away & unfortunately you'll have to start over.
the more you respond to the arrows correctly the faster you will be at the end but it takes a long time since the progress is only slow.

some players have suggested io to get the "Shark" arrow pattern faster to fail all the other arrow patterns & just wait till the "Shark" pattern appears. but first off that's extremely boring & on top i was not able to get the "Shark" pattern this way. so i would rather recommend to relax, fish as smoothly as possible & wait till the "Shark" pattern appears.

i wish you Good Luck & lots of patience

I been trying for what seemed like forever to get Me l Nemesis predator on Dimidium and tried the tactic Vitu mentioned of trying a spot and if the first one isn't it stop fishing entirely and then fish again. Did at one of the spots that can come and go for availability to be fished as I'm not sure if the permanent spot will work or not, want going to rusth it, and got the predator in like 10 or so attempts that way.

[MalaiseMads]

From what I can tell, there's no trick to it, just gotta get lucky. F, check for predator arrow pattern, Esc, repeat. I've gotten them in as little as 10 and as many as hundreds upon hundreds.

[Zedemix]

It worked for me when I restarted the game. Restart the game, dont kill anyone and directly go to the nearest fish place, then esc-f-esc-f-esc-f (repeat till the shark appears) and here it is

[vitu]

I managed to finish everything in less than 1h20 minutes. I noticed that the predators only showed up in the first attempts, so I started fishing, tried the first three, canceled the fishing, and started again. They all came quickly.

[Zedemix]

Idk, already catched Sand Shark here, on Dragonoria now

[wander2know]

do you still need the one on demodium to get the achievement?

[CursedPerson]

So for the fishing you can back out and restart the fishing until you find the shark.

The buttons are noticeably faster so you should be able to use this method to waste less time

christianjmusser, how?

[christianjmusser]

I've just cought three sharks today: nexorun, wadrium, & odyssium. Within five minutes of each other, AND the Heart of the Abyss worth 200k gold. I'm on like, cloud 99 right now. Living my best life. And it's all thanks to this thread. I would've never tried this long if it wasn't for the in depth explanation here. Thank you everyone, and a happy whatever yall celebrate this time of year.
