Banditfish

“Banditfish are insanely fast hunters and swimmers, hence their name. They have a single rudder-like fin at the back of their bodies, which they move in a swaying motion to glide throughout the waters. Despite being remarkably good at hunting smaller prey, they are still no match for the greater creatures within the Desolate Deep.”— in-game Bestiary description

Banditfish guide

Banditfish takes its name from its speed, and the in-game note calls it an insanely fast hunter and swimmer with a single rune on its body. It is a Rare catch from Desolate Deep, takes Insect as bait, and is tied to Spring; time of day and weather are Any.

It is smaller than the big names in the zone. It weighs 16.5 kg to 46.3 kg, with an average of 17.2 kg, and the max weight ranks 331st of 663. The price per kg is C$12.50 and the average sale is C$215, ranking 478th of the 742 documented fish, so it is a middle-of-the-road earner. It gives 100 base XP.

Desolate Deep also sells Reinforced Rod and Trident Rod, so you can stock up before heading to the water. No other Rare fish is listed in the same zone, so the Banditfish is the one to look for at that rarity.

Verdict: a decent filler for a spring session in Desolate Deep. It will not make you rich and it will not level you quickly, but it is easy to prepare for: bring Insect, fish in Spring, and sell what you catch. For bigger returns, look at Barbed Shark instead.
