Rotcoil Eel guide

Rotcoil Eel is a Rare catch in Toxic Grove, taken at night in Autumn with Fish Head bait. The in-game text describes an eel whose coils secrete a rotting slime that dissolves flesh on contact, lurking in decaying vegetation. It pays better than you might expect for its rarity.

It weighs 12 to 33.6 kg, averaging 14 kg, and sells at C$59.40 per kg, so an average fish is worth C$831.30. It grants 580 base XP. Its average value ranks 344th of the 742 documented fish, and its maximum weight is 350th of 663, which puts it comfortably in the better half of the list.

Widow Bloom is the other Rare fish in the grove, so you will often be choosing between two similar-tier catches. Toxic Grove also sells Decayed Rod and Plaguereaver, which means the zone covers your gear.

My verdict: this is a solid target for anyone fishing Toxic Grove in Autumn, particularly at night, because it pays well and the 580 XP is useful as well. The conditions are narrow, but they overlap with the zone's own seasonal pattern, so it is easy to fish for it while looking at other catches. Sell it for the coin unless a collection is your aim.
