The Grand Reef is a new island added to Fisch and it consists of 8 new fishes that you need to catch to complete your bestiary. Each of them requires a unique bait but luckily, there are no restrictions in terms of time, weather and season. Here’s how to get them all.
How to Get to the Grand Reef Location?
- Get a Boat: You’ll need a boat to travel across the Ocean. You can either purchase one from the Shipwright NPC or jump into a boat of a friendly stranger or a friend.
- Navigate to Forsaken Shores: Sail towards the Forsaken Shores, a group of islands located on the western side of the map. It should be marked on the map so simply follow the marker.
- Head Northwest: Once you’re near Forsaken Shores, continue sailing in the northwestern direction.
- Look for the Grand Reef: You’ll eventually spot the Grand Reef, a small cluster of islands identified by vibrant coral reefs and clear waters. There will be a dark cloud, lightning and whirlpool around the island, making it easy to spot.
This journey will be made easier if you have a GPS because it will let you pinpoint the exact location. The GPS coordinates to follow are: -3530, 130, 550.

If you’re lucky, you can also catch fish with the Electric mutation here because there’s a 15% chance on this island. This will increase the value of your fish by 1.45x and of course, it is shown visually through electric sparks coming out of the fish.
