How to catch Bully

Catch Bully at a predator fishing spot. Cast into the splash zone in the disturbed water, then retrieve the lure steadily. Rainbow Fin is the common predator bait; Flaming Belly adds trophy chance but costs Jaws and a Lily.

The chase matters as much as the fight. Reel too fast and the predator loses interest; leave the lure still too long and it does the same. Once hooked, oppose each run and reel in the pauses. Its class 3 run reaches 320 speed with 90/s line tension, so short corrections beat one long pull.

Quick rig: Pipecross is the primary bait listed for Bully. Check the recipe in the bait and tackle guide before you leave the dock.

Size classes & catch odds

Day and night odds are identical in the demo data; class 3 is the rare trophy roll.

3 classes

Class	Weight	Chance	Stamina	Tension	Speed
Class 1	3 – 4 kg	60%	110	60/s	280
Class 2	5 – 7 kg	32%	110	70/s	300
Class 3	8 – 12 kg	8%	110	90/s	320

Higher stamina means a longer fight. Higher tension means the line snaps faster if you keep reeling through a run. Speed is the fish's movement value in the demo data, not a real-world unit.

The demo gives each bait an equal share where two are listed.

Bait	Share	Recipe	Category

Deadly Tick	50%	1× Sharpfin Flesh + 1× Circuit Board + 2× Sturdy Metal + 1× Cable	predatory

Where to find Bully

Bully is tied to trading post channels. The demo data lists 10 habitat spots for this species and marks it as always active.

Use the in-game fishing-spot prompt to confirm the target before casting. Our schematic chart shows the demo's main fishing areas, but it is a route diagram rather than a coordinate-perfect map. If the spot lists a different species, move on instead of emptying your bait bag.

Value & processing

Sale value

7 / kg

Price is per kilogram in the demo build. A class 3 fish is worth substantially more than a class 1 of the same species.

Processing

Grinder → Fish Meat

Sell whole fish when you need cash. Process when a recipe or contract needs the material, especially Chromatic Scales and Jaws.

Field notes

A heavy predator that takes its time. The long fight is the point; conserve tension and let stamina drain. If you try to shorten the fight, the line will shorten it for you.
