Whiptail Catfish guide

The odd thing about Whiptail Catfish is how little it weighs for a Legendary. It averages 2.5 kg and never goes past 3.1 kg, yet it sells at C$200 per kg, so an average catch brings in C$500.

You can find it in Moosewood with Seaweed as bait. It is a Night fish, any weather works, and it appears in Spring and Autumn. Base XP is 200.

The rankings tell the story: 390th of 742 documented fish by value, but 575th of 663 by maximum weight. In other words, its price comes entirely from the per-kilo rate, not from size, and a small fish can still be worth more than a big one.

Moosewood sells five rods: the Flimsy Rod, Fast Rod, Crew Rod, Lucky Rod and Long Rod. That is a wide choice if you want to upgrade before a night session.

Verdict: a worthwhile night target when you want a Legendary that does not ask for a rare season or special weather. C$500 per fish is a decent payday, and Seaweed is the only bait to bring. Fish Moosewood after dark in Spring or Autumn.
