Dredge: Recording Rarities Dredge guide, tips

In the Recording Rarities task you will attempt to catch 4 rare fish. From this page of the guide you will learn where to find Gulper Eel, Oarfish, Coelacanth and Goliath Tigerfish. We also suggest what types of fishing rods you will need and where to find the Traveling Marchant.

Last update: 24 April 2023

This page of our guide to Dredge features a walkthrough for the Recording Rarities Pursuit, during which the Traveling Merchant will task you with catching four rare specimens: Oarfish, Coelacanth, Goliath Tigerfish and Gulper Eel. We explain where to find them and what rods are required to catch them.

To complete the task you'll need different rods for different kinds of fish. If you don't know how to get a specific rod, check the pages All fishing rods and How to get a Hadal rod? You'll also need Packed Explosives to blast your way through any obstacles. We've explained how to do so on the page How to remove Debris?

You don't need to have the fish with you when returning to the Traveling Merchant. All that matters is catching it and gaining its Encyclopedia entry. This means you can sell them right away if you wish.
