Halibut Fishing: Expert Tips & Strategies for Success
1. Mastering Basic Techniques
Bait Selection: Use krill for beginners and upgrade to salmon roe or krill eggs as you progress. Halibut are attracted to shiny, slow sinking lures.
Rigging Setup: Attach a weighted sinker to the line 2-3 meters below the hook to reach deeper waters where halibut thrive.
Weather Adjustments:
Stormy weather = halibut hide in caves—target dark-colored rocks.
Sunlit days = use silver spoons to mimic injured prey.
2. Advanced Angling Strategies
Energy Management:
Save laser sonar for stubborn fish (limited to 3 uses per level).
Use 诱饵散射器 (bait spreader) to create confusion around hiding spots.
Multi-Target Fishing:
When a halibut surfaces near seabirds, cast a circle hook to catch smaller fish first—halibut often follow.
Night Fishing:
Halibut become aggressive after midnight. Use UV flashlights to spot bioluminescent markings.
3. Equipment Upgrades & Blueprints
Key Upgrades:
Tangle-Free Line (Level 10): Reduces 30% of line break failures.
Halibut Scale Scales (Level 15): Detects hidden underwater structures.
Secret Blueprints:
Find * Coordinates (North 42°, East 12°) to unlock the Golden Net, which doubles fish value.
4. Common Pitfalls & Fixes
"Line Tangled" Error:
Tug gently on the line to loosen knots.
Use the line cutter (found in the tool chest).
"Halibut Escaped":
Wait 90 seconds before reeling in.
Use the fish attractor during the final 10-second window.
Level 8 Boss Fight:
The Angler Kraken attacks every 4 minutes. Drop krill炸弹 to weaken its tentacles.

5. Pro-Tip Community Insights
Reddit User "DeepDiver99": "Halibut always circle clockwise in clockwise-spinning lures."
Xbox Forum: "Hold RT while reeling to trigger a surprise catch (10% chance for rare fish)."
6. Multiplayer Strategies
Co-op Quests:
Partner with a fishing expert to share lure packs.
Combine harpoons for double damage in boss battles.
Shared Resources:
Trade treasure maps (worth 500 XP each) for access to exclusive zones.
Final Note: Check the logbook (press L1/LB) for daily challenges. Completing the Halibut Heritage mission rewards a 永恒鱼钩 (permanently increases catch rate by 15%).
