When to chase Eel
Chase Eel when Spring / Fall is active, the 4:00 PM - 2:00 AM time window fits your day, and wait for Rain weather before making the trip. For planning, catch and store one before selling extras.
Skip the trip when the season or weather is wrong, but make a plan to return before the bundle window closes. The location is Ocean, so combine the fishing trip with nearby errands when possible.
How to use this data
Plan a Eel catch without wasting the season
Fish pages are most useful when you turn the season, weather, time, and location fields into a short fishing plan before the day starts.
- Check the season first: Eel is only useful to chase when Spring / Fall is active.
- Match the time window before traveling. If the window is narrow, finish watering, animals, or mining plans before committing to the fishing trip.
- Use the location and weather fields together. A correct location on the wrong weather day is still a failed trip.
- If you need this for a bundle, catch and store one before selling extras.
