The massive update in Fisch through Update 18 introduces the Lobster Fishing system, a new feature that brings a more complex and strategic fishing mechanic.
In this system, you will use the Lobster Cage, a special trap designed to catch lobsters in large quantities and rarer types.
Here’s a complete guide to all types of Lobster Cage available in the game, how to obtain them, purchase locations, and usage tips to maximize your catches in the deep sea.
What is Lobster Cage in Fisch?
The Lobster Cage is a trap used to catch lobsters in a deep-sea area known as the Lobster Pool. Unlike regular fishing methods, the lobster cage:
- Has a luck factor that increases the chance of catching rare lobsters.
- Has a maximum weight capacity (kg) indicating how much catch can be carried.
- Can only be used in specific locations in the sea and requires a special boat (Utility Boat).
Usage Locations & Requirements
To effectively use the lobster cage, ensure you meet the following requirements:
- You must have a Utility Boat (a boat that can access deep waters).
- Be on the boat and close to the Lobster Pool area.
- Press the X button (PC) or tap the screen (mobile) to lower the trap.
- Not all locations are suitable—only Lobster Shores (Sea 1) and Netter’s Haven (Sea 2) support this feature.
