Exquisite Fishing Beginner Guide
The core gameplay loop of Exquisite Fishing involves casting your lure, navigating deep ocean waters, attracting specific targets, and reeling in valuable catches to sell for gold. To build a successful early-game strategy, you must understand how to navigate the starting Calm Ocean and secure your first major upgrades.
Video Highlights:
- Learn the basic casting and lure-guiding mechanics.
- Discover early-game gold farming methods using the Calm Ocean Mermaid.
- Observe hook meter management to secure difficult catches.
Core Fishing Mechanics
When you cast your line, you control the lateral movement of the lure as it sinks. To attract a special creature, your lure must carry the exact hook and gift combination required for that target. Once a creature bites, keep it engaged until the hook meter fills completely, then reel the catch back to the surface.
| Boat Type | Entry Cost | Accessible Ocean | Primary Depth Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Regular Old Boat | 0g | Calm Ocean | 50m - 300m |
| Regular Boat | 1,500g | Rocky Ocean | 100m - 600m |
| Reinforced Boat | 5,000g | Turbulent Ocean | 50m - 1,000m |
| Golden Boat | 8,000g | Dark Ocean | 50m - 2,000m |
Do not waste gold on mid-tier gifts early on. Stick to the Diamond Ring and Box of Chocolates to secure high-value Calm Ocean targets first.
Complete Walkthrough & Progression Route
To complete the exquisite fishing gallery and unlock every hidden scene, you must progress through four distinct ocean biomes. Each biome features deep-sea milestones that require stronger boats and highly specialized hooks.
Calm Ocean Mastery
Start with the free Regular Old Boat. Focus on catching the Mermaid at 50m and the Shark at 200m. Farm the Angler at 300m using a Box of Chocolates and a Regular Hook to secure a fast 10,000g payout.
Rocky Ocean Exploration
Purchase the Regular Boat for 1,500g. Upgrade to the Reinforced Hook and Double Shielded Hook. Target the Kappa at 500m and the deeper Rocky Angler at 600m to accumulate the 5,000g required for the next vessel.
Turbulent Ocean Depths
Buy the Reinforced Boat for 5,000g. Prepare the Super Hook and Anal Beads Hook. Retrieve Grandpa's Letter at the 1,000m ocean floor, and farm the 900m Shark for 24,000g to fund your endgame boat.
Dark Ocean Descent
Unlock the Golden Boat for 8,000g. Upgrade your gear sequentially to the Anal Plug Hook and the ultimate Omega Hook. Reach the absolute bottom of the game at 2,000m to catch the deep-sea Angler.
Always ensure you have enough gold left over for target-specific hooks and gifts before purchasing access to a deeper ocean biome.
