Merry Manta Ray guide
Winter fishing around Northstar Castle can turn up the Merry Manta Ray, a Limited fish that is currently listed as obtainable. It needs Clear weather and the Winter season, with no bait listed.
It is a small fish: 2.5 kg minimum, 3.25 kg average and a maximum of 8.4 kg, which ranks 479th of 663 fish with a documented maximum. At C$473.30 per kg, the average catch comes to roughly C$1,538, 283rd of the 742 documented fish by average value, and 1,510 base XP. That is decent, not outstanding.
Its siblings in the same zone and rarity are Jolly Bait Crate, Northstar Whale and Santa Whale Shark. If your target is a large payout, those are names to look into too, since the manta ray is a modest entry in that group. Still, it has a clear use as an easy winter catch and as part of a seasonal set.
My recommendation is to take it when it shows up and not to rearrange your plans around it. Pick it up for the collection and the XP, and keep an eye out for the other event catches when the weather allows.
