How to unlock the Angler achievement in Biomutant - Definitive Guide

It looks like the location called Guppo Grotto is the only location with Guppos. In the main story you visit this location and collect 5/20 Guppos for a quest.

In this location you can find 5-7 Guppos, so after the story you need atleast 3 visits to complete this achievement. The respawntimer for the Guppos looks like 30 minutes and start AFTER you are leaving the location! (You can't idle there!)

/e from the comments (WhyattThrash)
You can just save and reload your save for the guppos to respawn instantly. (catch, save, reload, and they respawn and you can catch them again)

In case you need a video:

Can't seem to gain access once the elevator goes down, anyone else?

EDIT: extension of this guide below if you're having trouble gaining access.

Saving and reloading did not work for me. The guppo respawn but my progress meter for the achievement didn't budge.

I can confirm saving and reloading does work. Go to the area, catch the fish, THEN save. Load your game and the fish respawn. The 20 fish have to be on the same save so you can't just save, then catch, then keep loading the same save. Save after each time you catch the fish.

Nice catch I8ITackyticsI8I , I didn't consider that it could be interpreted that way. Yes, catch, save, reload, and they respawn and you can catch them again. Repeat. Doesn't work for any of the other animals but at least we get one freebie.

Saving and loading seems to work and not work at the same time. I tried this method right next to them, left the area and re-entered etc. No method increased my progression bar.

I was able to save in the room with the Guppos, catch, save, load, repeat to earn the achievement. Saved running in and out.

The save and reload system does not work anymore. I save before catching the first 5, and then reloaded, and my counter stayed at 25%.

The save reload system does work, just I think there is a misunderstanding as I just now got the achievement with that method. You need to catch all the Guppos first, then save the game and reload that save. When you reload it the Guppos will respawn so you catch them again, save again and then reload. You don't save before catching them and then reload after without making a new save, otherwise it doesn't progress the counter. It unfortunately doesn't work for the Glittermoths or Gumducks though it seems like as I was unable to get them to respawn with that method.

The way I got back in because the door at the bottom of the elevator is locked is using the mucus bubble. Jumped from the rocks on the right side when facing the drain tunnel.

important detail:
catch 5 SAVE, LOAD
catch 5 SAVE AGAIN, LOAD
if you just keep loading, you stuck at 50%

Further to the guide above, i was unable to have access back to the Grotto via the elevator, cause unknown. Anyway, i managed to gain access via the tunnel with the water running from it to the right, and traverse through the Grotto in reverse.

You will need four Bio points and be required to purchase Fungi under Biogenetics, Mutations (this will give you a nice height once bounced off of). Use this to get back up to the tunnel from the railing nearby. Try to spawn it on the rocks just below and ensure it's not fully submerged, otherwise you'l simply drown. Use double jump and glide to secure the platform (shouldn't need to glide).

Guppos are yet again a creature introduced during a main story mission. Like the Gumducks, these only spawn in the one area the story takes you. This time, you'll be returning to Guppo Grotto every 30+ minutes to finish off the achievement. After the story mission is complete, the door to this area closes and you need to enter a drain pipe to get back to where the fish are. See the video below for how to jump into the pipe and find the spawn point.

Capture 20 Guppos

Guppos are a black fish that you are required to capture during one of the main quests before facing the Murk Puff world eater. They are all black with white eyes, and like Gumquacks seem to only have one specific spawn point, located in Guppo Grotto.

At the end of the tunnel area you can find a group of them spawned in the shallow water in a circular room. You capture them by pressing Y when they jump out of the water.

Like Gumquacks this appears to be the only location that they spawn in, so you will need to return here after story to farm more of them, waiting around 30 minutes of game time before returning so that they respawn. They also appear in pairs of 6 at a time, so you will need to make at least 4 trips here total to obtain 20 of them.

Like Gumducks, Guppos are only found in one location. Unfortunately you can only catch 6 at a time in this spot and you cant save, quit, reload and farm them, you actually have to wait at least 30 mins real time before they respawn! So just do other tasks, revisit and get the Guppo’s. You will earn the trophy upon catching 20.

Having completed the quest, they will spawn here at any time, in the depths of the catacombs:

If your elevator door is closed when you go down, you can jump on the railing near the exit that you opened during the quest and double jump into it.

PS5: we leave the room where the fish were, save, exit the game, load the save, 5 fish are back in place.

Everything is caught without any saves and rollbacks half a game ago and replaying it all. You just need a helicopter backpack. You can get it from Lobo by completing her quest. She is located in Bleakstation. Having this backpack, we fly into an open drain, back to where we left the location with the pool.

Attention! The save/load method for catching fish on 09/24/21 does not work. Xbox Series S. Progress just isn't happening.

Solution: Caught, went outside, teleport to complete any 1-2 additional tasks. We return by teleport to the nearest point, go to the collector, the fish are there - collect them, repeat the steps until 100%. It took me 3 times. The time is about 30-40 minutes.

Without even leaving the grotto

First, we catch fish according to the quest, after completing the quest we return to Huppogrot (located below the Pichu Fortress in Listvobor), climb onto the railing and double jump into the pipe from which we got out during the quest (if you can’t jump there, then complete the quest from Sol in the Flea Dunes and he will give you a flying suitcase, fly on it) we go down to the fish, catch them all, then we go to the air flow that lifts us, save and immediately load this save and go catch the fish, repeat until the trophy falls out.
