As you see, there are a few new bait types in the Second Sea and they can be obtained from the Tropical Bait crates. You can fish them out of the water anywhere in the 2nd Sea, they are of fairly low rarity.
In terms of the best fishing rod for catching the fish here, go for the one with high resilience and control. That’s because this location has some of the more challenging catches, and a rod with low resilience may lead to losing rare and valuable fish, while breaking your streak. Some options include the Depthseeker rod, Champions rod, Kings rod, Rod of the Forgotten Fang, Seraphic rod, etc. will come in handy.
If you’ve enchanted your rod with Mystical, Piercing, or Blessed Song (for the Progress speed reduction), the process of getting 100% completion of The Cursed Shores bestiary in Fisch is going to be easier and faster.
With that done, here’s how you can complete the Open Ocean bestiary and collect multiple new rods like Azure of Lagoon, Blazebringer, Verdant Shear and Free Spirit Rod.
