Icy Carp guide

Icy Carp pays C$35.70 per kg, a good rate for a light Unusual fish of Northern Expedition. It bites in Winter on Bagel, and the game calls it a hardy carp whose scales form ice-crystal patterns.

Because it weighs little, the total is modest. An average carp is 5 kg and sells for C$178.50, which is 510th of the 742 documented fish by average value; the heaviest recorded one reaches 17.5 kg, 416th of 663. Base XP is 120. In practice that means roughly the same pay as an Iced Perch, with the difference that Icy Carp can grow larger, so a lucky pull is worth more than a typical one.

Bagel is the detail to remember. Bagel is not the bait of its neighbors, so switching to it is a deliberate choice if you want this species. Its same-rarity neighbors in the zone are Ice Jellyfish and Iced Perch. Gear is easy to find locally, since the Arctic Rod and the Crystalized Rod are both sold there. This is a pleasant catch to sell, not one to build a trip around.
