Spore Lurker guide

Spore Lurker is a Common bottom-feeder that releases spore clouds to escape predators, according to the wiki. You find it in Toxic Grove with Maggot as bait, but only when it is raining in spring, so the window is narrow for something so cheap.

The payout is small. It averages 1.5 kg (1.2 to 3.8 kg), and at about C$66.7 per kg that comes to C$100 per fish. That ranks 584 of the 742 documented fish for average value, in the lower quarter, and 563 of 663 for maximum weight. Base XP is 60. The rate per kilo is decent, which is why a tiny fish still reaches a round hundred, but the total never gets exciting.

Bog Skulker is the other Common fish in the same zone, so if you are trying to collect everything in Toxic Grove, those two are a natural pair. The area also sells Decayed Rod and Plaguereaver, which is probably the more productive reason to visit.

Verdict: do not go out of your way for it. If a spring rain happens to catch you in Toxic Grove with Maggot loaded, enjoy the C$100 and move on. Use the trip to look at the rods on sale instead.
