Multi-Pole Fish

Catching a Multi-Pole Fish[edit]

In order to catch a multi-pole fish, a wrangler must do the following:

Have all poles at maximum level (including all add-ons). See Notes for details on using RLC's +2 level bonus.
Travel to the appropriate island
Harness Liquid Gold on the fish
Turn Liquid Gold on (a common mistake is to harness but not activate it)
Activate the first of the poles required for the fish.
Fish NOW!
After fishing for a while (may take many casts), a notification will appear that you've hooked the fish. You then have 15 minutes to switch to the next pole and click Fish NOW a second time to reel it in. The attraction cast doesn't (?) add to your countdown timer, so you should be able to cast immediately after switching poles.*
Revel in your achievement and enjoy your Polaroid. (currently all multi-pole fish has a Polaroid, except for the Antaboga Fish, Double Reignbow Fish, Sirene Fish, Mother Hydra Fish, Sir Threebean Fish and Sewer Alligator Fish which do not have one).

*NOTE: Multi-pole fish can be missed after the initial attraction cast, especially for the later more difficult fish such as the Calendar Fish. If you experience a miss (do not immediately land the fish) after switching poles with game chum active, it is recommended to use Love Chum (RLC/FLC).

Tip: If your first cast after attracting the multi-pole fish and switching poles is a miss, you have 15 minutes to make as many casts as you can. Any cast within the next 15 minutes might catch the fish. After 15 minutes you will need to start the whole process over again starting with step 5 to attract it again.

Notes:

A wrangler can attract a multi-pole fish with the first pole at (for example) 78 / 80 if using Red Love Chum, due to RLC's +2 level bonus. However, it is believed that the other pole(s) must be at maximum level without the level bonus. So you can fish for a Plangaepus Fish with a level 98 / 100 Algaenite with RLC active as long as you have the Planktonite at 100 / 100.

For the Golden Fish (which requires three poles at maximum level), the wrangler has to make the initial attraction with either the Oak Branch or Broken Standard active, then (once attracted) cast with the other one. Deckhand Deb will handle the Fancy Rifle-pole. This is the case for any Multi-pole fish that requires three poles at maximum level. The 3rd pole as stated in the 'How to catch this fish?' will be used by a Deckhand, so never equip the given 3rd pole needed which the Deckhand will use. The Deckhand will equip this automatically after your first two poles has been equipped.

Currently, you are only able to catch ONE of any Multi-pole fish.

Several of the multi-pole fish can be initiated with any of its pole requirements needed regardless of what the "How to Catch" states which one is to be used first. Experience has shown that the trick is you must still switch to the opposite pole, again regardless what the red pop-up states to switch poles too. For example with the Spirit Ray Fish the how to catch tells you to equip Great Equalizer pole and harness LG, however one can actually use Kolenya pole first. The confusion than becomes when they receive a red pop-up telling them to switch to the Kolenya pole, which they already have equipped. Leaving that pole equipped will not catch the fish, one must switch to the opposite pole (Great Equalizer in this case) in order to catch it.
