How to Catch Ancient Koi in Palia

Ancient Koi is one of the rarer fish species in Palia, but with the right techniques and knowledge of where to find them, you’ll be able to add this beautiful catch to your collection. This guide walks you through the best locations, bait choices, and casting strategies to successfully catch Ancient Koi.

Where to Find Ancient Koi

Ancient Koi can be caught in multiple locations throughout Palia. Look for them in saltwater bodies of water, the Ducts area, and the Deep Wood region. These diverse habitat options give you flexibility in planning your fishing expeditions.

Best Bait and Setup

Ancient Koi is more likely to be attracted to worms, making this your ideal bait choice when fishing for this species. Worms significantly increase your chances of attracting this rare fish compared to other bait options.

Casting and Reeling Technique

Once you’ve selected your worm bait, launch your fishing reel into the water. To maximize your chances of catching rare fish like Ancient Koi, aim to cast your reel directly toward visible bubbles on the water’s surface. Targeting these bubble spots greatly increases your probability of a successful catch.

Casting toward the bubbles not only improves your chances of catching fish in general, but also specifically increases the likelihood of landing rarer species.

Patience and Persistence

Catching Ancient Koi may take some time and patience. Since different fish species inhabit the same areas, you may need to make multiple casts before successfully catching an Ancient Koi. However, the presence of multiple fish species in your chosen location actually works in your favor—it means Ancient Koi are present in that area.

Summary

To catch Ancient Koi in Palia, remember these key points: fish in saltwater areas like the Ducts or Deep Wood, use worms as your bait, cast toward visible bubbles on the water’s surface, and stay patient as you wait for your catch. With these strategies in place, you’ll be well-equipped to add Ancient Koi to your fishing collection.
