Dunkleosteus guide

Weighing in at an average of 4,754 kg, the Dunkleosteus is the kind of fish you notice on the line. This Legendary armored predator lives at Ancient Isle, bites on Minnow during the day, and ranges from 2,460 kg to 7,000 kg according to the wiki.

The size is what drives its price, because the per-kilo rate is only C$1.167. Average value lands at C$8,169, 140th of 742 documented fish, and its 7,000 kg maximum is 102nd of 663 by weight. Base XP is a generous 2,000, so it works as both a cash and a levelling catch.

Ginsu Shark and Leedsichthys share its Legendary tier in the same zone, so Ancient Isle can fill your Legendary slots with three heavyweights. Rods sold at the island are Krampus's Rod, Phoenix Rod and Stone Rod, so you can gear up on site. Bring Minnow, fish in daylight, and treat this as a strong sell.
