Turbot - Petit Planet Creature

At a glance

How to catch Turbot

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. Common freshwater fish and gray saltwater fish can usually be caught straight away after the bite.

Where and when to find it

Habitat: Coastal Waters. Distribution: Islets — this is an islet specialty, so plan it into a Starsea Voyage rather than a planet sweep..

Season: Year-Round. Time: Nighttime. Weather: Any Weather. If two of those tags are restrictive, check the creature tracker before you set out.

The pancake-like Turbot isn't nearly as easy to catch as a pancake. Unlike other common fusiform fish, it chose the evolutionary strategy of "moving as little as possible." And judging by its thriving family tree, the "pancakification" strategy was a massive success.
