Fields of Mistria Fish Guide
Filter fish by water type first, then season, weather, time, and shadow size; keep new species for the museum before selling.
Direct answer
When you look for a Fields of Mistria fish, identify the water type—Pond, River, Ocean, or a special area—before checking season, weather, time, and shadow size. New species are usually safer to keep for the museum or a request. Legendary Fish are a separate route that requires the Legendary Perk and should not be treated as ordinary random catches.

How to narrow down a fish
Start with the water type because a fish cannot appear in every body of water. Once the area is correct, check the season, weather, time window, and visible shadow size listed by the current reference.
If a catch does not appear, verify the location before changing the day repeatedly. A wrong water type can look like bad luck even when the fish is never eligible there.
Keep the first copy for the museum
A new fish can be worth more as a collection entry than as immediate money. Check the museum marker and any active request before cooking, gifting, or selling the only copy.
After the first donation or request, duplicate catches can support recipes, gifts, or income. Keep one spare for rare fish whose conditions make replacement slow.
Legendary Fish use a separate checklist
Legendary Fish require the Fishing Legendary Perk and a specific seasonal route. The morning signal and the correct water area matter, so repeated ordinary fishing without the perk will not unlock the encounter.
Use the dedicated Legendary Fish page for the four seasonal targets. Do not mix its one-per-save collection rule with the normal fish table.
A practical fishing routine
Carry enough space for several catches, check the weather and time before traveling, and mark a new species immediately. If a request is active, compare its quantity with the museum need before spending the item.
When a fish list conflicts with the game, note the version, water type, and time of day. Old Early Access tables can omit later species or use a different area description.
A reliable fishing loop
Carry room for several catches, check water type before traveling, and filter by season, weather, time, and shadow size. Mark a new species for the museum or an active request before using it elsewhere.
If a list conflicts with the client, record the version, water type, weather, time, and shadow. Early Access tables can use a different area description or omit later content.
