How to Fish: Strategies for beating the Pufferfish
It's not just you, the Pufferfish boss is a major spike in difficulty.
To catch the elusive Pufferfish in How to Fish, players must upgrade their gear and employ strategic tactics. First, acquire the necessary fishing equipment by purchasing a Fishing Rod ($3) and a Standard Lure ($15). Use the Standard Lure to catch endangered creatures, which can be fed to a swimmer to obtain Carrot Bait. Apply the bait to your hook and aim to reel in the Pufferfish.
The Pufferfish is a challenging boss battle, requiring players to remain mobile and avoid its purple poison, which can quickly deplete health. Upgrade your arsenal with an SMG ($650) and additional bullet upgrades to increase your chances of success. Move strategically, using trees to create cover and luring the Pufferfish around the merchant's shop, where it may become temporarily stuck. Remember, patience and persistence are key to overcoming this formidable adversary.
