Where to Find the Trophy Fish

1. Nibbling Minnow

Zones — All Zones of Khaz Algar
Pools — Calm Surfacing Ripple

The Nibbling Minnow is the most common Trophy Fish, and it can be found in any zone within Khaz Algar. Look for Calm Surfacing Ripple pools, as these are your best chance to catch this fish quickly.

2. Arathor Hammerfish

Zones — Hallowfall
Pools — Blood in the Water

The Arathor Hammerfish is found only in the Hallowfall zone, making it more exclusive than the Nibbling Minnow. Focus on fishing in Blood in the Water pools to get this catch. Its rarity makes it slightly more challenging, but with the right pool, you’ll secure it in no time.

3. Queen’s Lurefish

Zones — Hallowfall, Azj-Kahet
Pools — Royal Ripple

The Queen’s Lurefish is the rarest of the three, found in Hallowfall and Azj-Kahet. You’ll need to locate the elusive Royal Ripple pools. Be careful — fishing in these pools with a low fishing skill may result in catching a Cursed Ghoulfish instead. To avoid this, throw a Regal Dottyback into the pool to clear the waters and ensure the Queen’s Lurefish appears.
