@dorinash1 the community is on the lookout for these runes that have appeared in game and could be a possible hidden mystery

@wilfinn @vanadiumcobalt There's at least one whole thread on runes. This thread is to talk about the dearth of fish.

@elmadre1 Where on this thread have I mentioned runes?

@vanadiumcobalt Sorry, I meant to tag @dorinash1. Here, have a Large Mackerel as compensation.

@barney_1104 yeah, I agree. The longboat going with us is messing up our big fish count!
I tried just fast traveling to Cent where you can dive into the ocean and find a small boat. Well it worked the first time but then the fish I did catch glitched out of the water- literally. Also the fishing village on the south coast of Cent, spawned fish when I entered the harbor from one side, but then fish disappeared within 1 minute. I went to Norway, and cannot after seeing fish see one large mackerel. This is the buggiest of all three AC games I’ve played. I played Odyssey without any glitches. Valhalla on the other hand-Yule Festival disappeared early and left me with Yule tokens, constant disconnection when you look at your pictures you took on the world map, and this fish thing is just plain annoying.

@elmadre1 what?

@dorinash1 Anyone who has it used a mod. You don't see any console players with that challenge unlocked.

@khaos004 absolutely

Hello all,

I have all fish except
2 big flatfish
2 big mackerel
3 small bream
2 regular bream

I know of the flatfish and mackerel problem but the coastal areas where bream spawn is also not working or they despawn and have only got a few due to luck.

Hoping for a fix soon.

@fudz4 Travel to the Isle of Wiht. Head in the direction of the Roman ruins and follow the coast till you meet some bandits hiding in the shrubs, you will also see one fishing on a pier. Try for the Bream you need here. You might have to meditate then wait to see if they spawn. Rinse and repeat. Good luck!

I don't know if this has been posted here or not because i didnt read the entire thread.... but somehow i managed to make fish spawn again. I will try to reproduce it.

So basically i had the issue where i fast traveled to a port, used odins sight asap, to confirm there are fish there. Fish were there, but in a mater of seconds they all disapear. Even if i managed to shoot one, the body would also disapear.

So then i sailed my longboat a few meters away from the pier, went back to the pier and meditated. This respawned both my longboat at the pier, together with loads of fishes! And this time they stayed here, even got a big bream

*sigh* nevermind.. This was a major letdown..
I exites to menu to write this and when i came back, the fish were gone again and now i cant reproduce this fix

@shovelator I'm guessing you was a folcanste... It's better to fast travel inland and mount your way there but even then the fish are temperamental there so could take numerous mediations until they respawn

@wilfinn Yep, i was there. I guess it's the meditation that actually helps and i just got lucky for it to work on first try. Later i tried meditating again and moving around a bit, and sometimes it takes a couple of tries but the fish eventualy showed up.

None of the patch notes address the issue with the big flatfish or the big mackerel not generating in game. When is that issue going to be fixed? You can not unlocked the final quest from the fishing hut to get the swordfish.

@boo-yah1907 Well, you can’t use a mod on an Xbox, so I’ll have to wait. Why didn’t you say that in your first post? I had hoped you found good spot to fish...

This game is still [censored]. Still no big flatfish or big mackerel. Every other fish is in the game and have been found. Also noted that I have on numerous occasions spawned in Ravensthorpe and immediately fished numerous COD from the RIVER in the middle of the inland area. Another note, all the opals have been fixed, pointless as they have no major effect on gameplay, there is no related challenge and you can get them from contracts whenever. However I went to the Reindeer lake and one was dead or sleeping about 15m above the lake, [censored].

FIX THIS GAME ALREADY I HAVE GIVEN YOU THOUSANDS OVER THE YEARS ON EVERY GAME, DLC, REAL LIFE MERCH AMD BOOKS AND NONE OF US DESERVE THIS [censored]!!

Hopefully getting fixed next update

The game has been out for two months. You wouldn't think it'd be that difficult to make a couple existing game assets actually appear in the game...
