Sniper Fish Quests
Trigger Fingers[edit]
- Difficulty: 10/10
- Description: Kick back and relax with these cookie crisps and blueberry ice cream, served in the famous crystal gun glass.
- Pole Requirements: Level 70 Fancy Rifle-pole
- Rewards: 2 Liquid Gold first time, 1 Liquid Gold afterwards
- Quest specific tips: This quest must first be completed in Waterport. Fish with your fully augmented Rifle Pole and your best chum: RLC or Fish Guts Chum. RLC will help a lot, since it gives a 25% benefit for catching "top 4" fish, and all the quest 4 fish are affected. Using Liquid Gold will help a lot catching remaining Snipers or the Marshall. This quest may take 1200+ casts depending on the luck of catching the Snipers and Marshall.
As with all quests completed in Waterport, using repellants will slightly increase your chances of catching the quest fish. Boo Juice along with K9 Pheromone will eliminate the Miny Fish and Catty Fish when in use. Antifreeze Protein will work too, but is better saved for Fishertonville where the Cubey exists but the other 2 prior fish do not.
On October 15, 2010, new fish were added as the game developers worked to make Waterport and Fishertonville more distinct. As a result, all the quest and augment fish for the Fancy Rifle Pole were relocated to Waterport.
If you have unlocked the Silenced Rifle in WaterPier, you may prefer to fish there for this quest as the catch chances are different, and you can also level up your stealth.
- Catch Requirements: 24 Shell Fish, 16 Target Fish, 10 Sniper Fish, 1 Marshall Fish ×1.5 when done with friend

SUPER BONUS QUEST!
(Difficulty: 20/10)
The Super Bonus Quest of Waterport requires Farovian Wranglers to catch an unholy number of the rarest fish in town! Not for beginners.
Pole Req: Level 80 Broken Standard
, Level 80 Oak Branch , Level 80 Fancy Rifle-pole
Rewards: 70 Free Love Chum (first time only), 2 Liquid Gold, 5 Mystery Tackle Boxes
Quest specific tips: In order to start this quest, you must have completed the quest sets for the Oak Branch, Broken Standard and the Fancy Rifle-pole. This quest is VERY hard, and not recommended for the faint of heart. To make best use of the quest bonus, start with the Oak Branch until you catch all the Blossoms, then switch to the Broken Standard for the Mechanics using Fish Guts or Red Love Chum, then switch to the Fancy Rifle-pole to finish off the Sniper and Marshalls. If shells aren't a issue, keep running Boo Juice with Antifreeze Protein. If it's tight, just use some Boo Juice & some K9 waiting until you have a maximum Quest boost first. This quest can take up to 22,000+ casts.
Another option is to unlock WaterPier and progress through the different stealth poles in that same order. You will still have to switch over and complete the related stealth quest if you are still needing to unlock the next stealth pole or area.
Starting Requirements: 50,000 Gold, 15 Boo Juice, and 5 Dojo Mojo
Special Quests require various resources to start because BetsyLou's new boyfriend on the side is an aspiring wrangler and needs some help getting started with gold and a variety of other delightful resources!
Catch Req's: 95 Blossom Fish, 42 Mechanic Fish, 27 Sniper Fish, 8 Marshall Fish ×1.5 when done with friend
