Goldband Butterflyfish guide

Goldband Butterflyfish asks for Gale Grub on Treasure Island and returns more than you would expect from an Uncommon. Specimens weigh 7 kg to 46.2 kg, averaging 14.5 kg, and at C$131.82 per kg an average catch sells for C$1,911. That is 263rd of the 742 documented fish by value, and 332nd of 663 by maximum weight. Base XP is 1,510.

No time, weather or season is listed, so you can fish for it whenever you are on the island.

Gem Eel and Gemscale Mandarinfish are the other Uncommon fish documented in the zone, and the Treasure Rod is the rod sold there. All three can show up when you fish for Uncommon bites, so you will often reel in one of the other two when you were hoping for this one.

Verdict: a worthwhile pick for Treasure Island sessions when Gale Grub is in your bag. A payout near C$1,900 and 1,510 XP is solid for the effort, and the lack of conditions means you can aim for it on any visit. If you are curious which of the three to chase, this one is the heavy option.
