Catching a Legendary Fish

Use ocean view to inspect the fish below

use ocean view to inspect the fish below

the views are the same.

Comments?

That's because location and the area on the boat/dock you cast from don't matter. If you were to exit that spot, then re-enter it, the fishes would be different every time. That would also happen if the boat didn't move.

Again, location doesn't matter. They may of intended certain areas to be better than others for certain fish, at this time, that's not true.

Do you need to press esc and go back on after every cast? Or does just reeling the line in and casting again do the trick. I've been doing this for an hour or two and have only seen ONE legendary at the very beginning...

[Sven Osymthe]

Either one of those ways has worked for me. ESC is just faster. If you want to reel though, I suggest catching a fish, then using skills to pull it in faster.

[Pirate lord 227]

Doesnt space bar pull it in even faster though?

[Sven Osymthe]

Not that I know of..

[Pirate lord 227]

If you press space bar it reels it in really quickly. Does catching the fish itself have an impact? Because reeling in with space bar is SUPER fast

[Sven Osymthe]

Catching a regular fish is what I used to go up quicker without hitting esc, however, try using space. I'll have to try that later.

[Pirate lord 227]

Thanks for the answers, was hoping i was doing something wrong though.

Pressing space enables quick reel, which automatically reels your lure back real fast without catching any fish. (It was in the instructions I posted before fishing came out, if anybody read it)

Different legendary fish are worth different amount of gold. I've been able to keep track of four of them.

Fogbell = 1000 Gold
Glittering Girl = 1000 Gold
Mossy Moses = 1500 Gold
Fire Dragon = 2000 Gold

Does anybody know how much Speedy Lou is worth?

I am at my wits end. There is no way that I can click fast enough on either Mossy Moses or the Fire Dragon to get it out of the yellow. I have defeated the other three
but these two have me beating my mouse so hard I am afraid it will break. I can't do
it two handed because when I do, the mouse skitters off the table.

How in the heck do you click so fast????

700 to maybe 800 gold. I caught him yesterday twice, and I believe it was about 700 gold.

I have not figured out how to click that fast either. I did manage to catch Mossy Moses once. Just once. Every time after that was a FAIL! Fire Dragon has escaped me more than once too. My arm hurt after catching Mossy the first time! Maybe I need a special rapid fire mouse. (I have no idea if that would work)

I managed to catch Mossy Moses, using this technique, which I mentioned in my previous post:

The method I usually use is holding down my mouse, and then unleashing an unholy hail storm of finger clicks straight downward, instead of the regular way of holding it. It allows me to grow crazy without my mouse flying across the room, basically.

[Dog Firestack]

Without your house going across the room ?_?...

[Captain Del]

Yes. I play POTCO in a small cardboard box. I thought everybody does these days?

And I'm not specifically sure how much Lou is worth. I know he's not worth 1000g, so I'd have to assume that, yes, he has to be around 750.
