_Connor Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 It's obvious that the flying fish is a solution to the 'fish clipping into terrain' issue, which works well mechanically and aesthetically. What doesn't work well is having them still spawn inside the 'water' that can no longer be penetrated with fishing spears: Pretty much every flat body of 'water', especially those surrounded by elevated terrain, have this issue. There are only a few spots on the map where this issue doesn't occur with extreme regularity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldrr Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 The Daughter offers special spears that can pierce the exocrine jelly layer and get to the fish beneath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyabi-sama Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Dude. These "rivers" of thick liquids are SUPPOSED to be impenetrable. You should use Cambion Drift infested spears to be able to penetrate it and get the fish under the surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sahiratu Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 You just need the right spear lol BUT, sometimes it does spawn below the terrain XD Or inside rocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AltheusVI Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 To me the flying fish looks like DE had a bug where the fish spawn in the air and someone had a cunning plan to call it a feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already have five (?) fishing spears but I'm afraid you need to go shopping, pal. My gear wheel can't take much more of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may know this already, but you only need to equip one Fishing Spear in your Gear Wheel and don't need to equip Bait or Dyes. Once you have a spear out, you can swap to other spears even if you don't have them equipped to the Gear Wheel. The same goes for the Tranq Rifle and its lures/pheromones.

Glad I could help, then 🙂 Yeah, there's so much fishing crap that it would normally clog up your entire Gear Wheel several times over. I was quite happy when I learned I only needed one item.
