Sockeye Salmon guide

Sockeye Salmon is a Common fish with two homes: Moosewood and Earmark Island. It bites on Bagel in Rain, and only in Autumn or Winter. The wiki calls it a very common salmon found near Moosewood, which makes it one of the first rainy-season targets for a new player.

It averages 5 kg, between 2.8 kg and 14 kg, and the maximum ranks 429 of 663 fish. The payoff is small: C$6.5 per kg gives an average value of C$38, 675 of 742 documented fish by average value. Base XP is 25.

Four other Common fish share the same zones: Anchovy, Largemouth Bass, Red Snapper and Trout. The same zones also sell five rods: Flimsy Rod, Fast Rod, Crew Rod, Lucky Rod and Long Rod. That is a lot of shopping for a single trip, which is the real reason to be there.

Verdict: do not fish for Sockeye for the money. It sits near the bottom of documented fish by value, and its base XP is only 25. Catch it when Rain arrives with Bagel in your bag, and use the same visit to look at the rods on offer.
