Silt-Crusted Carp guide

Silt-Crusted Carp is a Drylands Uncommon with a simple recipe: Worm bait, Clear weather and Summer. No time of day is listed, so you can cast whenever the weather cooperates. According to the wiki, its thick, silt-caked scales protect it from extreme aridity.

Numbers first. The average fish weighs 4 kg, with a range of 2 kg to 12.6 kg, and the maximum ranks 436 of 663 fish. At C$20 per kg, it sells for C$80 on average, which ranks 603 of 742 documented fish by average value. Base XP is 80, a tidy match with its price.

It shares Drylands with three other Uncommon fish: Bone-Plate Dace, Cactus-Feeder Barb and Mirage Fin. If you are collecting everything from that zone, expect to cycle through all four with the same Summer conditions.

Verdict: a low-value catch, useful mostly to complete the Drylands set or to pad a basic run. Do not make a trip for it, but if the weather is Clear and it is summer, Worm bait is cheap enough that it costs you almost nothing to keep one on the line.
