Where is the Goldenfish in Monster Hunter Wilds

In Monster Hunter Wilds, the elusive Goldenfish can appear in various spots. However, I managed to spot it at the location given on the Windward Plains map, specifically Area 14: Groundwater Vein. After fast traveling here, take a stroll forward and you’ll receive a prompt to dive when you reach the water’s edge. This allows you to access the designated area on the map. Once there, move cautiously to the right, and chances are you’ll catch sight of the Goldenfish. I found it in this spot 4 out of 5 times, and even just now upon reloading the map, I found it twice consecutively after catching it. If it doesn’t appear initially, try resting and setting Plenty or Morning as your map option from your tent.
