Stage 6 of 6

After the credits: the Fishipedia, drip creatures and every achievement

With the story done, what is left is collection: the journal, every drip variant, the 28 achievements, legendary skins and the single 100,000 sale.

Checked against Patch 1.0.11.

Mutated Bowhead Whale, the most valuable creature in How to Fish

What is left once the story is done

Four collections and one number. The journal tracks 49 creatures, 38 of them with a drip variant; the Reel of Fortune holds 24 legendary skins across 9 things; 28 achievements, 11 of them late-game; and a single sale of $100,000.

The journal

  • 49 tracked; 5 creatures never count.
  • 2 of them come from no bait: Albatross and Mutated Bowhead Whale.
  • Slowest by best odds: Dripper (3.8%), Voxelfish (3.8%), Bowlfish (4.3%). Every creature's best bait is in the creatures lookup.

Drip and skins

Achievements

  • 28 in total; 11 are late-game: I am speed, Fully equipped, Terrorizing bird, Deadliest catch, We are so back, Easy, Rich! Millionaire, Collector, Handyman, Fishipedia, Bean.
  • Bean is measured against 1 hour of saved playtime, not one session.
  • Every check and unlock rate is in the achievements lookup; the rules behind them: How do achievements unlock?

Money

  • The $100,000 sale starts from the Mutated Bowhead Whale at $15,000.
  • Best lure per catch: Scientific Lure, $1,528 on average. Why weight and kills move the price: How is a creature's value decided?

Pick a goal

Each guide takes one collection or one number from start to finish.

  1. Which creatures does the Fishipedia want?The journal counts 49 creatures. Five things you will catch on the way do not count at all, and eleven of the 49 can never fill their drip half.
  2. What is the real drip creature chance?Community guides say nobody knows the drip rate. The game does, and it is a single number applied the same way to every non-boss catch.
  3. How do I get every achievement?Most of the 28 unlock on their own. Six have a number attached that the description does not mention, and those are the ones people get stuck on.
  4. What is the fastest way to make money?Most money advice for this game stops at which fish is expensive. The larger lever is how you kill it, because bonuses multiply the price on the tag.
