Fishing Spots and Catch Rates
Catch chances and quantities for European Mudminnow depend on landing a good or critical catch during the fishing minigame. The following table details every fishing spot where European Mudminnow can be caught, including district area, node tier, minigame difficulty, catch chances, drop quantities, and respawn timer:
| Fishing Spot | District & Area | Tier | Minigame Difficulty | Normal Catch | Good Catch | Critical Catch | Quantity | Respawn |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bamboo Fishing Spot (Common) | The Hanging Gardens (Bamboo) | Common | Easy (2 rings) | None (0%) | 75.0% (1) / 25.0% (2) | 50.0% (2) | 1-2 | 30s |
Basic normal catches never yield fish at these spots, so landing at least a good catch is required to obtain European Mudminnow. Each node respawns on a 30-second timer once depleted.
