Complete Genshin Impact Fishing Guide

Fishing in Genshin Impact is essential for obtaining The Catch weapon, one of the best free-to-play polearms in the game. Our fishing tracker helps you monitor fish locations, respawn timers, and track your progress toward weapon refinement.

How Fishing Works in Genshin Impact

• Fish respawn every 72 hours (3 days) after being caught

• Different fish require specific bait types for optimal catch rates

• Some fish only appear during day or night hours

• The Catch weapon requires 6 Rusty Koi, 6 Golden Koi, and 6 Raimei Angelfish for R5

• Ornamental fish can be placed in your Serenitea Pot for decoration

Best Fishing Spots by Region

Mondstadt

Cider Lake and Springvale offer the best variety of medaka species. Perfect for beginners and ornamental fish collection.

Liyue

Bishui Plain and Dihua Marsh are essential for The Catch materials. Home to the legendary Golden Koi and Rusty Koi.

Fishing Tips & Strategies
