Lurking Crescent Pike

Lurking Crescent Pike is an Uncommon fish of Blue Moon Sea 2, in the First Sea. It takes Lagoon Leech in Windy weather during Winter at any hour, and the listing describes a slender fish with crescent markings that hides in the shadows.

Weight is the odd part. It averages only 12.5 kg, but the maximum is 137.8 kg, so a lucky catch can be more than ten times the average. That maximum ranks 266 of 663. At C$27.778 per kg an average catch sells for C$347.2, rank 433 of the 742 documented fish, and it pays a surprisingly high 1,525 base XP for an Uncommon.

The XP is the reason to fish it. No other fish of the same rarity is listed for the area, and no rod is sold there, so you bring your own.

Verdict: a niche XP source, not an income source. The cash value sits in the lower half of the ranking and the conditions are specific, but 1,525 XP in one catch is a lot for the tier. Fish it on a windy winter session when you also want levels, and sell any extras without hesitation. If you are chasing money in Blue Moon Sea 2, look at heavier catches instead.
