How to catch Black-Saddled Coral Grouper

Use the Fishing Rod. The exact approach depends on the creature’s category and, for shore-dwellers, its species type.

1. Cast the Fishing Rod into the right water: rivers and lakes for freshwater fish, coastal waters for saltwater fish.
2. Wait for the nibbles, then strike when the line bites down.
3. Higher-quality saltwater fish need a slow reel-in. Keep the line from snapping instead of holding the button down.

As a member of the grouper family, the Black-Saddled Coral Grouper is naturally also famous for its delicious taste.

However, since it's a large fish that lives in coral reefs, it can also build up ciguatoxin in its body. Therefore, no matter how tasty it is, remember not to overindulge.
