As your expertise as a fisherman advances, Kanya will task you with catching increasingly elusive and challenging fish species in Monster Hunter Wilds. One of her final quests is called “The Fish of a Lifetime,” where players must locate and catch a whopper – one of the largest fish types within the game. There are several spots where you can find these mammoth fish, but be mindful of some new features that will come into play during this challenge.
How to catch a whopper
To catch a whopper for the Catch of a Lifetime quest, you must equip and use one of the new lures Kanya gives you after completing Fishing for Flavor: Tuff Joint Bait or Duster Rig. For my catch, I used the Duster Rig.
You can find a whopper in Area 17 of the Scarlet Forest. Go to the northern side and look over the edge to see fish swimming around. There is a school of fish swimming in a circle and there should be a larger fish moving around them.
1. Throw the Duster Rig lure into the water.
2. Move the lure around to get the whopper’s attention.
3. When the fish bites, use the new wrangling controls to tire it out and bring it closer to you. This means moving the line in the direction the fish is swimming.
4. Once the fish stops swimming, start reeling it in by pressing up and down on the left stick, but stop as soon as it starts moving again.
5. If the fish jumps out of the water, follow its movement by moving the stick in the same direction and pull the right trigger to keep it under control.
If you succeed at the mini game, you will catch the whopper. The fish will fly up through the air and land on the ground beside you. This will complete the “catch a whopper” portion of the quest. Report to Kanya to complete Catch of a Lifteime and move onto the final fishing quest.
Catching a whopper is going to be a more challenging fishing adventure in Monster Hunter Wilds. You will need to actively work to reel it in, as opposed to the automatic fishing you’ve encountered with the smaller creatures. Be sure to look over our Monster Hunter Wilds page for more quest guides and monster locations.
