Shiverfin Haddock

Cold-water anglers should look at Glacial Grotto, where Shiverfin Haddock bites on Fish Head during a Winter day in any weather. It is a Rare fish, described as having frosty blue scales and faint frost patterns across its fins.

The listed weights run from 5 to 27.6 kg, and that maximum ranks 366th of 663. The price is C$41.667 per kg, which gives an average sale of about C$354, 428th of the 742 documented fish, along with 220 base XP. That is a respectable return for a Rare.

Frostbite Flounder and Glacier Swordfish are the other Rare fish in the same grotto, so a Rare bite there is one of three outcomes. No rods are listed for the zone, so you will need to arrive with whatever rod you already own.

Verdict: a sensible Winter-day target for anyone fishing the area. The coin value beats most Common and Uncommon fish, and the 220 XP is a meaningful step. It is not the top prize in Glacial Grotto, but with Fish Head already in your bag it costs nothing extra to try, and selling it is a fair choice.
