Lunar Monkfish guide
Blue Moon Sea 1, in the First Sea, is where Lunar Monkfish turns up. It is a Mythical fish that takes Shark Head bait in Windy weather during Winter, at any time of day. The listing calls it a grotesque, moon-kissed beast lurking in the icy abyss.
Its value is its selling point. The record gives an average weight of 224 kg and a price of C$32 per kg, so an average catch is worth C$7,168, rank 145 of the 742 documented fish, comfortably inside the top fifth by value. It also pays 5,500 base XP, which is a lot of levelling in one catch. No minimum or maximum weight is listed, so I will not guess at its size range.
No other fish of the same rarity is listed for the area, and there is no rod for sale there, so you arrive with your own gear.
Verdict: a good target for a player who can reach Blue Moon Sea 1 in winter. Load Shark Head, wait for the wind and fish. At that price it is worth selling if you need cash, and the XP is a bonus on top. Check the conditions first, since the Windy and Winter requirements make it easy to waste a trip.
