How to Fish Game Map and Island Route

Follow the How to Fish game map from the Lighthouse through the four unlockable islands, using boss trophies and radar colors.

Reported

The current route has five accessible locations: the starting Lighthouse plus Forest, Desert, Rocks, and Volcano islands. New radar markers appear only after you finish the preceding boss or quest hand-in.

Route order

StopUnlock conditionRadar clue
LighthouseStarting areaStarting position
ForestDefeat Spider Crab and receive the Boat KeysGreen marker, roughly northwest
DesertReturn the Giant Piranha SkeletonYellow marker, west of Forest
RocksReturn the Pufferfish trophyRed marker, west of Desert
VolcanoDefeat Albatross and complete its hand-inPink marker, north of Rocks

The directions and colors are Reported from the release build and may shift after an update. If a marker is missing, check the quest hand-in before sailing blindly; killing a boss without delivering the unique item often leaves the route locked.

Steam confirms the overall structure—quests and bosses unlock new islands—but does not publish a coordinate map.
