    The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure Fishing Guide

    Become Crossbell's master fisher.

    Lloyd’s return to the Fisherman’s Guild in The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Azure is a chaotic one with the Imperial Fishing Club taking over. However, this is a great opportunity for Lloyd to shine as a master fisher. Lord Lakelord III presents a challenge: defeat him and four of the club’s best fishers in the Angler’s Duel.

    The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure players can get a head start with their fishing exploits by going down the Mainz Mountain Path heading to the Moon Temple. One of the chests contains a Bamboo Rod, which is useful for acquiring different species of fish from existing fishing spots. At Barca Casino, players may also purchase Little Shooter, which is a useful fishing rod for smaller fish in ponds. Later into the game, players may also receive the Viking Rod to catch really large fish. 

    Note: The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure players must complete the fishing questline before the end of Chapter 4.

    Angler’s Duel

    Kaguya

    Kaguya is among the first that a player should defeat with some luck early in the game. She located at the Old Armorica Road, so she’s hard to miss while on the way to Armorica Village. In order to face Kaguya, players must catch a fish longer than 130 rege. This requirement is as simple as catching an eel from East Crossbell Highway. Then, the player must catch over 300 rege in fish in a head-to-head Angler’s Duel with Kaguya. 

    Sharkman

    Sharkman asks for six different types of game fish to earn the right to duel him. The required fish are: the gluttonous bass, rockeater, Armorican carp, piranha, arowana, and pirarucu. These fish are common catches by utilizing the Bamboo Rod with earthworm, dumplings, and snow crabs as bait. Once the criteria is met, he will challenge Lloyd in a sudden death duel. The rules are simple: whoever catches the most fish wins.

    Narses

    Narses requires the most “beautificent” fish in Crossbell to initiate the Angler’s Duel at Mainz Mountain Path. The fish in question is the Noble Carp, which may be caught at the Boathouse fishing spot. Narses’ Angler’s Duel requires Lloyd to catch the most expensive fish. Players may win by catching a Gold Salmon, which only requires the Bamboo Rod and deluxe dumplings.

    Triton

    In order to face Triton at West Crossbell Highway, players must catch 29 unique kinds of fish. This is a time consuming requirement, but it’s very feasible after acquiring different rods and bait. Triton’s Angler’s Duel requires Lloyd to be the first to catch five different fish to win. This may be done by alternating between different rods and bait, so stock up on a variety of bait. 

    Lord Lakelord III

    After defeating all four of Lakelord’s apprentices, speak with Peter at the Boathouse to receive an incredible fishing rod, the Aqua Ruler. Players should also purchase Rainbow Ball bait to catch some legendary fish at all five Angler’s Duel fishing spots. Then, talk to Lord Lakelord III at the Fisherman’s Guild building and head to the Ursula Road lakeshore fishing spot to challenge him in the final Angler’s Duel. In order to win the duel, players must catch the exact same fish as Lord Lakelord III to win. This comes down to try and error while memorizing combinations of fishing rod and bait to capture certain fish.
