Can anyone either tell me with some backing on if this is true or not? Would be really appreciated. I have been fishing outside padres del fuego for like 4 days now and havnt so much as seen the fire fish, I cast out way past the 100 mark and let it sit for atleast 5 minutes before I recast and repeat not letting any other fish touch the legendary hook.

thanks for any and all info you can give me

ps: Surrender the ! and I wont sink you!.... maybe......got any cookies onboard?

The treasure is mine, but I will give you a cookie.

Anyway, I really think that legendary fish's locations, and normal fishes' for that matter, are totally random. All about being in the right place at the right time.

Thanks for the pic Muffin! Now that I know what I am looking for I might actually catch one! It looks like a cross between a dragon fish, and a black chimera.

Saw my first legendary fishies today...Speedy Lou and Glittering Girl. HOLY CATS...I got to the part where I have to click the reel and apparently I'm not good enough at reel clicking because I've lost them both. =( Interesting though...quite a change from the regular fishing, that's for sure!

[Speedway Master]

Different Legendaries have different difficulties in the Struggle, Reel and Catch portions of the fight. For example, Speedy Lou is fast to escape when you reach the Catch portion, and the handle will spin very fast. Mossy Moses doesn't escape that fast, but it takes a while to Reel him in. Fire Dragon is nuts. Its Struggle portion takes forever to complete, but it'll take a while for it to escape too.

The bar on the top of the screen measures the Legendary Fish's stamina. As time passes, its stamina goes down. This makes all the portions of the battle easier to do. Patience is really the key.

mossey moses just stole my bait near devils anvil... stupid laptop

[Tiberius Fireskull]

Wow, this is just so evil I have to share it. I was fishing today, and I had my lure down about 101 feet. Then, the screen narrows as if going into a cutscene. A legendary!!! I had no clue which one it was. So as soon as I am about to type "legendary!" my laptop overheats. I felt like crying because it was so unfair.

I HATE YOU LAPTOP!!!! :'(

arent laptops just EVIL right?

[Captain Sharktooth]

Grats, I still am trying to get one....

[Jim seapaine]

ive had lots of luck near the beach of devil's anvil


ive seen speedy lou 2 or 3 times mossy moses 3 or 4 times there
glittering girl once and fogbell twice!

[Redfoote Vader]

I caught Mossy a couple months ago near Cutthroat. He's tough to reel in but not as tough as the legendary Fire Dragon.

I found Fogbell 3 times in a row so i think they not random but have cycles. I have a great glitch (well i think its a glitch) if ur searching for legendary fish. You have to have 10 regular lures and be over lv 15. If you bring the sharks, coelacanths, etc., up to the surface then let them take your lure, they will stay on the surface! Side effect: sharks eat the small fish. Hope this helps! P.S. Make sure your using regular lures to bring them to the surface!
