Longnose Chimaera guide
Collapsed Ruins hides an odd fish: Longnose Chimaera, an Unusual catch that needs Squid bait, Night, Foggy weather and Winter. The listing calls it a ghostly, primitive fish with a long snout and a venomous spine.
Its price is the weak point. At C$0.125 per kg and 1,250 kg on average, it fetches C$169, ranking 517 of the 742 documented fish. Weight is a different story: the maximum of 4,200 kg is rank 113 of 663, so you will certainly feel the fight even if the payout is small. It gives 165 base XP.
Bigeye Houndshark is the other Unusual fish of the zone, so expect the two to share your casts. No rod is listed for sale there, so you will need to bring your own.
Verdict: it is an awkward target. The condition list is long (bait, hour, fog, season) and the reward is average at best. Fish it only if you are already in Collapsed Ruins at night in winter, or if you are completing a collection. As income, it will not repay a special trip.
