Mechanic Fish Quests
Stumbling Pie[edit]
- Difficulty: 10/10
- Description: Spiked apple crumble pie in a graham cracker crust.
- Pole Requirements: Level 70 Broken Standard
- Rewards: 2 Liquid Gold first time, 1 Liquid Gold afterwards
- Quest specific tips: Start with Fish Guts, the preferred chum for the Mechanic (the likely quest "bottleneck" fish). Love chum gives a 25% benefit for catching the "top 4" rarest fish
and is the preferred chum for the Wanderer Fish. Use Liquid Gold for help catching remaining Mechanics or the Wanderer. Using repellents such as Boo Juice, K9 Pheromone and Antifreeze Protein (AP) will block out 2-3 of Fairly Prolific fishes and let you catch the rarer fishes easier. This method may be costly in the long run, and won't guarantee quick success (Note: you can only use two at any time). Thus, it may be advisable to only use some, or no resources at all, according to your budget. Boo Juice is best choice, blocking two fish at a cost of 10 shells. (K9 cost 15 shells, 5 cheaper than AP. AP should probably be saved for the Cubies in Fishertonville.) - Catch Requirements: 20 Duct Tape Eel Fish, 15 Shard Fish, 15 Mechanic Fish, 1 Wanderer 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
