Discoveries[]

71 (26 fish, 13 creatures, 31 trash items, 1 monster)

Fish, creatures and monsters can be caught using a variety of fishing techniques. Certain species can be caught only during day or night. Additionally, each species is more active during certain months of the year, during which larger fish (higher stars) can be caught. When a fish is out of season, it can still be caught, however, its size is limited to a maximum of 1 star.

The fish, creatures and trash below are listed alphabetically by default. They appear in a different order in the bestiary within the game.

Several fish, creatures and trash can be caught in multiple locations, which are provided in the tables below. For the best locations to catch a specific fish, creature, trash or monster, see the interactive map for Scotland.

Trivia[]

Finn's Cave is a reference to Fingal's Cave^[1], a sea cave in the Inner Hebrides of Scotland, known for its basalt formations and natural acoustics.
The Stone Circle may be based on the Calanais Standing Stones^[2] that were erected 5000 years ago and predate Stonehenge. These are located in the Outer Hebrides in Scotland.
