Fishing Locations In Genshin Impact With the release of the Genshin Impact version 2.1 update, a robust fishing system has been added to the game. Genshin Impact has regularly added some side activities for players to enjoy in the world of Teyvat throughout the first year of the service. This includes permanent additions such as the player housing system and limited-time event activities such as rhythm mini-games. The implementation of the fishing system provides travelers with new ways to earn rewards and improve their in-game homes. Brave fishermen can use this guide to see different fishing spots at Genshin Impact.
There are some prerequisites for unlocking the fishing system at Genshin Impact. First, the player must unlock the Serenitea Pot housing system. Next, the player must complete the World Quest for the Explosive Population given by Catherine in Mondostadt. This quest requires an adventure rank of 28 or higher, so new players may have to do it before they can start fishing.

The original fishing spot
As of the release of version 2.1 of the fishing system, Mondstadt, Liyue and Lightning have fishing spots. At these locations, travelers can search for ripples in the water and start fishing with suitable fishing rods and bait. Before starting a fishing trip, players should make sure to make a lot of bait on the workbench. It should be noted that fish will respawn in their place every 3 days.
Mondstadt fishing locations
Players may spend the first time in Mondstadt with the fish quarreling with the fishing rod. Some fish, such as brown white fish, are unique to the region, just like some other local specialities in Mondstadt.

Two new fishing spots are located on Tsurumi Island in Lightning. The first location is on the west side of Senjing Shrine. After the player uses the teleportation point, go down to the West Bank to find a location.
The second is the southwestern part of the Otak Plain. It is a bit far from Waypoint, so travelers need to do some walking and gliding. The location is on a small island with a Hilichurl Hut. Travelers should remember that this location can only be visited after talking to the ghost Ipe.
Fish that only appear at a certain time
It is important to remember that not all fish will appear. Most notably, the stickleback and angelfish families have time limits. The following is a complete list of species that lay eggs only during the day or night:
Fish That Only Appears At Day-Time
- Akai Maou (Stickleback)
- Crystalfish (Medaka)
- Tea-Colored Shirakodai (Angelfish)
- Brown Shirakodai (Angelfish)
- Abiding Angelfish (Angelfish)
Fish That Only Appears At Night-Time
- Venomspine Fish (Stickleback)
- Snowstrider (Stickleback)
- Betta (Stickleback)
- Lunged Stickleback (Stickleback)
- Dawncatcher (Medaka)
- Raimei Angelfish (Angelfish)
The rest of the species can be found at any time, like the Medaka, Koi, and Pufferfish.
Exchanging Fishes In Genshin Impact
In each of the three regions, there’s a fisherman from the Fishing Association; Nantuck, Kujirai Momiji, and Jiawei. They can be found in Mondstadt, Inazuma, and Liyue respectively. Each of them has items that can be bought by exchanging certain types and amounts of fish.
Items that can be bought from Nantuck
| Item | Cost |
|---|---|
| Blueprint: Redrot Bait | 3 Medaka |
| Blueprint: False Worm Bait | 3 Medaka |
| Blueprint: Fake Fly Bait | 3 Medaka |
| Windtangler (Rod) | 20 Medaka20 Aizen Medaka20 Venomspine Fish20 Tea-Colored Shirakodai |
After purchasing the Blueprints, players can craft baits at the Crafting Table. Fruit Paste Bait is automatically available after finishing the Fishing tutorial in the Exploding Population world quest. There is also a Glowgrass Bait, but it was only accessible in the Lunar Realm event.
Items that can be bought from Kujirai Momiji
| Item | Cost |
|---|---|
| Narukawa Ukai (Rod) | 20 Medaka20 Glaze Medaka20 Lunged Stickleback20 Purple Shirakodai |
| “The Catch” (Polearm) | 6 Raimei Angelfish20 Golden Koi20 Rusty Koi |
| Ako’s Sake Vessel (Refinement Material) | 3 Raimei Angelfish10 Pufferfish10 Bitter Pufferfish |
Kujirai Momiji can sell players “The Catch”, a 4-Star Polearm, with its Refinement Materials, Ako’s Sake Vessel. She has four of them and each needs to be bought separately. If Travelers wish to buy all four immediately, they need to prepare:
- 12 Raimei Angelfish
- 40 Pufferfish
- 40 Bitter Pufferfish
This weapon is great for Sub-DPS characters like Xiangling and Raiden Shogun.
Items that can be bought from Jiawei
| Item | Cost |
|---|---|
| Furniture Blueprint: Pool of Sapphire Grace | 10 Medaka |
| Wishmaker (Rod) | 20 Medaka20 Sweet-Flower Medaka20 Betta20 Brown Shirakodai |
The Pool of Sapphire Grace is a pond for Ornamental Fishes. This special type is easy to distinguish, as they’ll constantly jump in the fishing spot. It’s important to note that Ornamental Fishes are strictly for Serenitea Pot only, and can’t be used to exchange for items.
Food Processing
Finally, fish can be processed into an ingredient for cooking recipes. Every species yields a certain number of fish. To make it easier, here’s a complete list of the species and how many fish they offer:
| Processed Material | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| One Fish | MedakaGlaze MedakaSweet-Floor MedakaAizen MedakaDawncatcherCrystalfish |
