How to Get Ashcloud Archerfish in Fisch
Players can get the Ashcloud Archerfish in Roslit Bay during the Ashfall Event. This event-specific fish thrives in foggy weather conditions, regardless of the time of day or season, making it a sought-after catch for all anglers during this period. However, it can be caught during any weather with a lesser chance of appearance.
To successfully catch the Ashcloud Archerfish, it’s recommended to use Coal as bait, as this matches its fiery nature. The other baits that can be used are Seaweed and Deep Coral.

Using fishing rods with high control and resilience stats is needed because the movement is very erratic.
If you have the Abyssal Specter Rod, you get a whopping 70% Resilience, but other rods like the Heaven’s rod, King’s Rod, Depthseeker, Seraphic Rod and even Rod of the Forgotten Fang can come in handy.
however, you can use enchantments to increase this stat: Resilient (+35% resilience) or Mystical (+45% resilience). Mystical is an exalted enchantment that can be obtained by using an Exalted Relic, which is different from the Enchant Relic.
