The Fisch Barreleye fish is causing some confusion amongst players! Can it appear outside of the Absolute Darkness event? Or is it available at all times?
Visit The Depths in Roblox‘s Fisch! Whilst you’re down there, try to get the Fisch Rod of the Depths too, which is a real flex once you obtain it. To access this location, to begin with, you must use a Fisch Depths Key – use our guide to find out how to get one.
Fisch Barreleye
There’s a debate around whether or not the Barreleye fish only appears during the Absolute Darkness event, within Ancient Depth Serpent abundance pools, or outside of both requirements.
Players report that they can catch the Barreleye when the event isn’t active and in areas outside of the usual abundance spots for the Exotic rarity Serpent. This fish is of the Mythical rarity, so it’s a little more common than the Ancient Depth Serpent (Exotic).
How to Catch the Barreleye
They spawn in the waters of The Depths and can be found throughout the location. They are not limited to the Ancient Depth Serpent Abundance spots. If you manage to catch a Barreleye, your Progress Speed reduces by 15% when playing the fishing minigame.
Bait
The Barreleye prefers the usage of Deep Coral bait, which is a Legendary rarity type. While it decreases your Preferred Luck by 10, the Barreleye fish likes it best! However, you do get a Resilience boost of 50. To obtain Deep Coral bait, you need to open Coral Geodes, which spawn in the waters of the Desolate Deep. You aren’t guaranteed to get this bait type when opening a geode though!
Other Preferences
As well as the specific bait type, the Barreleye prefers to spawn during the nighttime, though it can still appear outside of that. This fish also likes the Summer season best, but doesn’t mind about the weather.
