Toot Your Horn: How to Catch the Fisch Trumpet Fish
The Fisch Trumpet Fish might not be the rarest creature in the ocean, but it still takes some planning and a bit of luck to reel in. Whether you're filling out your Sunstone Island Bestiary or helping out the Angler NPC, this guide will cover everything you need to know about catching this jazzy little swimmer.
What Is the Trumpet Fish?
The Trumpet Fish is classified as Unusual rarity. It’s not exactly rare, but it’s not a guaranteed catch either. When reeling it in, you’ll notice the exclamation mark stays red, so you won’t know if you’ve snagged something Common, Uncommon, Rare, or Unusual until you actually pull it out of the water.
This fish plays an important role in your Sunstone Island Bestiary, so if you’re aiming for 100% completion, you’ll need to catch one. Additionally, the Angler NPC might request a Trumpet Fish as part of their fishing quests. Be aware, though, that the Angler NPC in The Depths asks for much rarer fish compared to the Angler on the surface.
