How to catch Greasechar

Catch Greasechar at a predator fishing spot. Cast into the splash zone in the disturbed water, then retrieve the lure steadily. Rainbow Fin is the common predator bait; Flaming Belly adds trophy chance but costs Jaws and a Lily.

The chase matters as much as the fight. Reel too fast and the predator loses interest; leave the lure still too long and it does the same. Once hooked, oppose each run and reel in the pauses. Its class 3 run reaches 320 speed with 90/s line tension, so short corrections beat one long pull.

Quick rig: Rainbow Fin is the primary bait listed for Greasechar. Check the recipe in the bait and tackle guide before you leave the dock.

Size classes & catch odds

Day and night odds are identical in the demo data; class 3 is the rare trophy roll.

3 classes
Class Weight Chance Stamina Tension Speed
Class 1 3 – 4 kg
60%
110 60/s 280
Class 2 5 – 7 kg
32%
110 70/s 300
Class 3 8 – 12 kg
8%
110 90/s 320

Higher stamina means a longer fight. Higher tension means the line snaps faster if you keep reeling through a run. Speed is the fish's movement value in the demo data, not a real-world unit.

Where to find Greasechar

Greasechar is tied to grease-stained water. The demo data lists several habitat entries for this species and marks it as always active.

Use the in-game fishing-spot prompt to confirm the target before casting. Our schematic chart shows the demo's main fishing areas, but it is a route diagram rather than a coordinate-perfect map. If the spot lists a different species, move on instead of emptying your bait bag.

Value & processing

Sale value

12 / kg

Processing

Grinder → Fish Meat

Sell whole fish when you need cash. Process when a recipe or contract needs the material, especially Chromatic Scales and Jaws.

Field notes

An oily, fast predator from the deeper channels. It runs hot and turns tightly; keep your pulls short and your patience long. The 12-per-kg price is the reward for a clean, patient fight.
