Anchovy guide

Moosewood is where the Anchovy lives, and it asks for little: Day, Clear weather and Spring. No bait is listed, so you do not need to spend anything special on it. It is a tiny Common catch, averaging 0.3 kg with a ceiling of 1.4 kg, which ranks 624th of 663 by max weight.

The price per kilo looks generous at C$100 per kg, but with so little fish the average sale is only C$30, 698th of 742 by average value. Base XP is 20, the sort of number you only notice in bulk.

Moosewood is also where several rods are sold, and that is the real use of this entry. Five are on offer in its zone: Flimsy Rod, Fast Rod, Crew Rod, Lucky Rod and Long Rod. While you fish there, the other Common fish that share the zone with the Anchovy are Largemouth Bass, Red Snapper, Sockeye Salmon and Trout.

Verdict: sell it without a second thought, and use the Anchovy mainly as proof that you are fishing in the right spot at the right hour. It will not fund a rod upgrade on its own.
