How to Beat Pufferfish in How to Fish
Beat Pufferfish in How to Fish by completing the Island 3 Tourist and Carrot requirement, preparing for the fight, and handing in its tail to unlock Island 4.
On Island 3, give the Tourist the required endangered creature to receive the Carrot, then use the Pufferfish route and hand in its tail after victory.
Before you start
This guide answers “how to beat pufferfish in how to fish” for players who want a direct in-game route, not a generic real-world fishing answer.
Check the active NPC request and your current island before spending money; progression is usually tied to a trigger or hand-in.
Use this route in your run
Work through the steps in order and pause when the stated requirement is not met. The next obstacle normally becomes clear after the relevant quest item, boss trophy, or coordinates are received.
For a different type of problem—combat damage, money, a collection gap, or a co-op setup—use the related guides below instead of repeating the same farm.
What to do
- Reach Island 3 after turning in Giant Piranha’s skeleton.
- Help the Tourist and keep the Carrot once received.
- Use the correct trigger to begin the Pufferfish encounter.
- Defeat it before its escape bar empties and hand in the tail for Island 4 coordinates.
Important tips
- Stop farming the endangered creature when the Carrot is already in your inventory.
- Check the quest item first if Pufferfish will not appear.
