In the bustling world of Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar, managing your stall and daily farm life can often push other activities, like fishing, to the backburner. While it might seem like a secondary skill, you’ll inevitably find yourself needing to cast a line again for various reasons – from fulfilling villager requests to tackling specific quests that demand the legendary Guardian Fish.
Unlocking the secrets to catching these elusive aquatic marvels, especially for quests like “The Big One” for Arata, can be a challenge. The game provides little guidance, leaving many players to wonder what exactly constitutes a Guardian Fish and, more importantly, where to find them. As your guide on Digital Tech Explorer, I’m here to simplify the hunt. Let’s dive into everything you need to know about Guardian Fish and how to reel them in.
All Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar Guardian Fish locations and how to catch them
Before you can even *begin* your quest for these prized catches, a crucial upgrade is in order: your fishing rod must be at least Gold or Gold+ quality. You’ll know you’ve successfully hooked a Guardian Fish when a distinctive, large red fish icon appears above your character’s head, differentiating it from a standard catch.
To further enhance your chances and streamline the capture process, I, TechTalesLeo, highly recommend investing in the Reel Power upgrade from Felix’s stall at the Bazaar. While the 30,000G price tag is a significant investment, this upgrade allows for faster reeling and simplifies the fishing QTE mini-game, making your Guardian Fish hunt considerably less strenuous. For an even greater edge, always use large fish bait – it significantly increases the likelihood of attracting bigger, and thus potentially Guardian, fish.
