Where are the best locations to find rare fish for the "Fisher of Fish" achievement?

The ''Fisher of Fish'' achievement in Red Dead Redemption 2 requires you to catch all 13 species of rare fish scattered across the game''s vast map. To unlock this achievement, you''ll need to master the fishing mechanics, locate specific fishing spots, and use the correct bait. Fishing is unlocked during Chapter 2 in the mission ''A Fisher of Men,'' where Hosea teaches Arthur how to fish. Once you have the fishing rod, you can start your journey to catch all the rare fish.\n\nTo catch rare fish, you must first understand the game''s fishing mechanics. Each fish species has a preferred bait type, and using the correct bait is crucial. For example, Lake Lures work best for fish in lakes, while River Lures are ideal for rivers. Special Lures, which can be purchased from bait shops or crafted, are required for legendary fish. To cast your line, equip the fishing rod, aim with the right stick, and press the cast button. Reel in the fish by rotating the right stick slowly and pressing the reel button when the fish struggles.\n\nThe 13 rare fish are spread across different regions, and each has a specific location. For example, the Legendary Bluegill can be found in Lake Don Julio, located in New Austin. The Legendary Smallmouth Bass is in Owanjila Lake, west of Strawberry. The Legendary Muskie is in Lake Isabella, north of Valentine. These locations are marked on your map once you pick up the ''A Fisher of Fish'' quest from Jeremy Gill, a fisherman you meet in the post-game epilogue. Jeremy will provide you with a map showing the general areas where each fish can be found.\n\nOne common challenge is dealing with the fish''s stamina. Rare fish are stronger and will fight harder, so you need to be patient. When the fish struggles, stop reeling and let it tire itself out. Once it calms down, resume reeling. If you reel too quickly or forcefully, the line may break. Additionally, make sure to upgrade your fishing rod with better lures and lines to increase your chances of success. Special Lures, which can be purchased from the bait shop in Lagras, are essential for catching legendary fish.\n\nAnother tip is to fish during optimal weather conditions. Some fish are more active during specific times of the day or in certain weather. For example, the Legendary Perch is easier to catch during rainy weather. Pay attention to the environment and adjust your strategy accordingly. If you''re having trouble finding a specific fish, try moving to a different spot along the waterbody or changing the time of day.\n\nFinally, make sure to prepare adequately before heading out to fish. Stock up on bait, lures, and provisions. Some fishing spots are in remote areas, so bring a horse with good stamina and a bedroll to set up camp if needed. If you''re playing as John Marston in the epilogue, you''ll have access to all regions, making it easier to complete the achievement. With patience, the right tools, and a bit of strategy, you''ll be able to catch all 13 rare fish and unlock the ''Fisher of Fish'' achievement.
