Check out this guide to know how to unlock the Abyssal Fishing Rod (Sampling Device) in Dredge.
As we know, there are Fish of several categories in Dredge. The catch is that you need to upgrade your Fishing Rod to be able to catch Fish of different categories. Abyssal is one such Fish category that becomes accessible once you have an Abyssal Fishing Rod-type. Having one such Rod is really important for the sake of in-game progression. That being said, check out this guide to know how to get an Abyssal Fishing Rod in Dredge.
In Dredge, Sampling Device is an upgrade that you need to catch Abyssal Fish. You first unlock it after completing the Research Assistant Pursuit. Wherein, you will have to Collect all the Samples to complete this pursuit successfully. Here’s how you can complete this quest and obtain Abyssal accessibility for your Fishing Rod in Dredge.
Doing so will unlock the Sampling Device upgrade for your Fishing Rod. The Sampling Device has abilities to catch Abyssal Fishes in Dredge. If you have a Research Part, I would recommend using it on the Fishing Rod after unlocking the Sampling Device. This will unlock the Bottomless Lines upgrade for your Fishing Rod which allows you to catch Hadal Fish. For your reference, here’s a guide that features steps to get Research Part in Dredge (link).
