I've been fishing for this elusive Joe (flying octopus) for about a week (a couple of hours a day). It's just not catchable with a 3-star fish, and that's it. I even caught a rare species pretty quickly. After all this, I was so burned out, I wrote to the feedback section asking for a better chance of catching this little bastard, and they replied, "Thanks for the info." That same evening, I went in a couple of times to try my luck, and out of 10 tries, I caught a rare, a 2-star, and finally a 3-star. I honestly don't know if it was a coincidence or not, but it was incredibly satisfying. It was as if they'd heard me, maybe they'd actually caught me.
For a long time, I couldn't catch two large 3-star fish: a Manta and a Three-Striped Terapon. The Manta was caught on the reef at dawn. The Terapon was caught in deep water at dawn (after catching the Manta, it was easier to fish there, as there's less chance of catching anything).
By the way, in both cases the main character said the line about the "big one" (not "It's no ordinary fish"). A total of 525 fish were caught to get 77 stars.
P.S.: If the fish is rare, then the main character's remark about the big one might be a scam; he also says the same about the 2* weight.
The type of fish depends on the location, time of fishing, and skip level. But to catch rare fish, you need level 14+, I think; it says there's an increased chance. But you can't reach level 14+ without catching these rare fish, unless you spend hours and hours...
This is a super disgusting event. Two damn fish just won't catch even at 77 stars. And I'm fishing at the right time and place.
Can anyone tell me where to look for the last bottle?
