Tips Before Starting

• Get the right fishing tools
• Use Baits from General Good Stores - The baits and lures have the fish name written on them that they will attract. This is good for attracting a particular legendary fish.
• Throw the fishing line as far as possible - while retracting it will cover a lot of areas when comparing to throwing it at a short distance.
• Reel Only When Fish Stops Struggling - If you start reeling as soon as you catch the fish, there’s a chance that the wire will break.

As you can see in the maps, there is a mark for each fish. When you reach near the location where the fish is located, a fish symbol will appear, which means the fish is located nearby and you can hunt for it.

After obtaining all of these 13 legendary fish, Jeremy will send you an invite. This will be the invitation where he will ask you to meet him at his fishing hut. Once you are there, both the Hero and Jeremy will head to Rio Bravo to catch the Legendary Catfish.
