Complete How to Fish game walkthrough

Co-op title How to Fish is much more than just a fishing game as you go on a unique adventure with your buddies. You visit different islands and locations to add more creatures to your collection. You’ll also find unique NPCs to chat, quests to complete, and bosses to defeat.

In this guide, I will provide you with every key steps to complete your adventure.

How to Fish Walkthrough

Before I dive further into the walkthrough, it’s important to understand some key concepts. How to Fish is largely a sandbox title where there is no one defined way to finish the game. For example, you can defeat the final boss in just one hour to complete an achievement, but that will result in you skipping plenty of locations.

For this walkthrough, I have focused more on exploration and enjoyment. I have been playing on a single-player save, but you can emulate this with your buddies just as easily.

Lighthouse

The lighthouse is the first location where everyone begins their game. You can speak with the lighthouse keeper to understand the basics. Pick up a clam and consume it to satisfy your hunger. Throw some of them using the cue button to feed the lighthouse keeper, who will provide you with cash. Your first purchase is the Basic Fishing Rod that costs $3.

With this, you need to use the free lure to catch a few species. The catches won’t be expensive, but they are easy to kill. You don’t need any weapon, and they will allow you to get further unlocks.

Keep earning cash until you can purchase a knife. You can also get the brass knuckles if you like, but I prefer the knife. Next, sharpen the knife to take its damage until 20. Now, you are ready for bigger catches, so purchase the Hotdog Lure for $1 each.

The bigger catches get you more money and allow you to get the necessary upgrades for your knife. Just equip your knife and use the anvil at the door of the lighthouse.

Next, purchase the Beer Can and feed it to the Lighthouse Keeper, and he will hand you the empty can. Use it as a lure to bring forth the Spider Crab. The Spider Crab is the first boss and the easiest one to defeat.

Don’t go too far because it will then jump, and I am not fan of it. Moreover, the jumps will also waste time. Bait it to charge it for an attack and then move sideways. It will get stunned after missing the charged attack, and you can get up to four hits (two-three can be done comfortably).

Reposition yourself, and repeat the process. Keep a track of the white bar under the health pool of any boss; if the white bar expires, the boss will escape, and you have to redo everything from scratch.

Once you kill the Spider Crab, feed the meat to the Lighthouse Keeper. This will complete the first quest, and he will reward you with the keys for the boat. Purchase the radar from him for $10, and we are all set for our next location. At this point, you’ll have completed your collection of all types of crustaceans that can be caught from the Lighthouse location.
