How to Fish in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla
In AC Valhalla, you could go spot fishing on occasions for various reasons: there’s the guy in desperate need of eels. Eivor could even trade fish at the hut for prizes, such as tattoo designs, crafting materials, and amour runes.
Here’s all you need to know about the fishing mechanics in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.
Unlock Fishing Deliveries
To fish in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, you need to unlock the fishing deliveries in settlement level 2 and construct a fishing hut at Ravensthorpe by the dock. After that, you will see that the option to equip a fishing line now appears on your action wheel.
Now, it’s time to find where to fish!
Where to fish in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla
There are 19 types of fish in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. Buy the various editions of “Fantastic Fishes & Where to Find Them” to get a list of locations where you can find these fishes easily. The edition is updated frequently, so check back at the merchant shop in Ravensthorpe.
You can either fish with an arrow or the fishing line. For instance, you can shoot an eel to help the man in the North-East Ledecestrescire complete the ingredients for his Ledecestre sauce.
These are the best spots to get an eel in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla:
- Ledecestrescire
- Oxenefordscire
- Sciropescire
- Grantebridgescire
- East Anglia
Sidenote: Fishes do not appear to spawn in several locations when it’s raining.
So, if you find shooting fish with an arrow boring, craft your fishing line and go to sea: now that’s the real fun. This is how to fish in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla with a fishing line
How to fish in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla with a fishing line
- Find a body of water with a sufficient number of fish to start fishing in.
- Open the action wheel and equip the fishing line.
- Follow the on-screen prompt to aim the line.
You will see a white circle showing where the line will be cast.
- Select a location to cast the line. Do this instinctively.
- Wait for a fish to bite.
Pro Tip: Use Odin’s sight to see all the fish in Eivor’s vicinity.
When a fish bites the line, your controller will start vibrating, and the fish will briefly pop out of the water continuously. You want to reel it in quickly, or it escapes. Here is how:
- Press R2/RT on consoles or SPACE on PC.
- Use X/A on consoles or SPACE on PC to draw the lure towards Eivor.
- Once you’ve caught the fish, it’ll be placed in your inventory, where you may trade it in.
Final Thoughts
Fishing is an exciting activity in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. It could be a source of meditation.

You can also go fishing when you need time away from the pillage and plunder. Whichever reason it is, follow this guide, cast your fishing line in any suitable fishing spots and enjoy the reward.
