    Fishing in a video game has become more common than seeing zombies in a horror game. While each game tries to add its own mechanics to make the fishing feel better, Metaphor: ReFantazio has added its own flair to make fishing stand out compared to the rest. The moment the game got different from the rest was when I had to answer a question while fishing. Your answer will be the ultimate decider whether you leave with a fish or not. Here’s a guide on how to fish in Metaphor: ReFantazio and give the correct bait answers.

    You will need Heismay in your squad before you even think about doing some fishing.

    Everything here will unfold on 6/14, once Heismay joins your alley, your next destination will take you to the Virga island. Since it’s part of the story quest, you will not miss it. The game will then throw a decent tutorial about fishing and most of its core mechanics to get you started.

    You can head up on the deck to talk to Heismay to start our fishing journey. Just like real-life fishing, you will also need to get your hands on some bait.

    Where To Acquire Baits For Fishing In Metaphor: ReFantazio?

    How to Get and Use Redgrass in Metaphor: ReFantazio

    You can buy baits from a Bug-Selling Boy or grow them yourself in Metaphor: ReFantazio.

    In the game, you will find only three types of baits: Grasshopper Biat, Worm Bait, and Tail Bait. While two of the baits (Worm and Grasshopper Bait) can be bought from the shop directly by paying money. The Tail bait needs to be acquired differently compared to the rest.

    • Buying the baits from a Bug-Selling boy. He will ask:
      • 100 Reeve for a Worm Bait.
      • 250 Reeve for a Grasshopper Bait.
    • Another option to get bait is by growing them, well, you grow seeds in the Gauntlet Runner, and after a while, you can pick up Tail bait from them. You can also get Tail Baits by cleaning the storage room in the Gauntlet Runner.

    Once you have baits in your possession, it’s time to meet Heismay again on the docks of the Runner to catch those fish.

    All Bait Answers In Metaphor: ReFantazio

    Answers to the Prompts will have an impact on the kind of fish and other items that we will reel in.

    One of the interesting elements Metaphor ReFantazio added to the fishing mechanics is the dialogue options. Instead of waiting around to see the wiggle with your eyes to drag the fish, here we choose a dialogue and the game will automatically handle the rest.

So, depending on what are you looking to get, you should have your responses ready when prompted. Here are all the bait answers and the rewards you will get for fishing in Metaphor: ReFantazio.
