How to catch Harpy

Catch Harpy 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 330 speed with 90/s line tension, so short corrections beat one long pull.

Quick rig: Rainbow Fin is the primary bait listed for Harpy. 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 2 – 3 kg
60%
120 65/s 310
Class 2 4 – 6 kg
32%
120 75/s 320
Class 3 8 – 12 kg
8%
120 90/s 330

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 Harpy

Harpy is tied to night water. The demo data lists several habitat entries for this species and marks it as day & night habitats.

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

7 / kg

Price is per kilogram in the demo build. A class 3 fish is worth substantially more than a class 1 of the same species.

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

A night-shift mutant with a violent turn of speed. Its size classes are spread wide, so the class 3 fish is a genuine prize. Keep the spotlight handy and the engine running.
