Palia Willow Lamprey: How to get, find, & catch
While most common fish can be caught anytime during the day/night, most epic and rare fish, on the other hand, only spawn at a specific time of the day. Yes, there are a few exceptions, but this Willow Lamprey is not. So, where can you find this fish? It resides in the Bahari Bay region.
Rivers of Bahari Bay
Sadly, this fish does not spawn in the Kilima Valley region. It can only be found in the rivers of Bahari Bay. But that doesn’t mean it’s limited to a few locations. There are many water sources where this fish can be caught. Here’s the list of all:
- The northwest side of the Flooded Fortress river
- The southwest side of the Flooded Fortress river
- The area near the bridge in Proudhorn Pass
- North of Statue Garden
- Thorny Thicket
These locations are the hotspots for this rare fish. Now that you know which locations to visit to get this fish, it is time to get some bait.
Bait
Catching the Willow Lamprey requires you to use worms as bait. You can get worms from your worm farm or buy them from the General Store. Either way works. However, since this fish is a rare one, we will recommend getting at least 5–10 worms. It may take a few tries to catch it.
Fishing Rod
Although you can catch it with a standard rod, we recommend getting a fine rod to catch this fish. It’s a rare tool for rare-level catches. You need the following requirements/items to craft it:
- Fishing level 6
- Gold x1500
- Heartwood Plank x10
- Iron Bar x5
- Standard Rod x1
You can buy the recipe for this rod after you reach level 6 in fishing. Then, head over to the Einar’s Guild store and get the recipe for 1500 gold.
Time
Considering the fact that it is a rare category fish, it can only be caught at night. So, consider visiting the given locations only after the sun has set. Anyway, the best part about catching this fish is its price tag. The normal Willow Lamprey can be sold for a flashy 135 gold, while the Star Quality version nets you 202 gold. Yes, that’s what you would expect from a rare fish. Apart from that, it can also be used for cooking and gifting some of the villagers. Also, it’ll count towards your achievements as always.
