How to unlock the Hooked achievement in Fallout 4 - Definitive Guide

As far as I can tell only the Gulpers, Crawlers and Anglers count towards this achievement as they are the only new sea creatures added in this DLC.

You will fight a lot of these during the story / exploration of Far Harbor so I would worry too much about farming them but if you do want to farm them the best place I found was the marsh area between Haddock Cove, the Ruined Church and Fringe Cove Docks which is located in the South West of the map. Just walk around this area hitting the VATS button (cn_LB) as it will target them when they are in ambush mode. When I did this I only needed 4 more kills which I found easily but the enemies should respawn within 24 hours if you need more.

Here is a screenshot of the area:

Thanks to Shawn1991 for the information that Crawlers count towards the achievement.

My achievement popped on a glowing fog crawler, so it looks like they count as well.

just for reference, some of the gulpers can be found hanging upside down from trees. I encountered 3 like this east of haddock cove.

I can confirm the alpha hermit crab counts. I just got the achievement after killing one.

Guess this achievement is a little glitched as well. I have explored almost every corner of the island and of course killed the sea creatures along the way. In addition Longfellow Cabin was under heavy attack when Fog Condensers were broken for some reason, like 6-7 sea creatures attacked this settlement. I killed them all but no achievement.

Is it possible that The Bloated Glowing One also counts for this achievement? I haven't seen that variation of ghoul until this DLC. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Excellent guide. Got this after 6 more kills using this method. Thumbs up from me,

This achievement must be glitched.
It seems as if nothing is respawning. I've went to the area on the map,
NW of fringe cove docks and killed about 5 Anglers. It's been empty ever since.
A few other places too.
Pretty sure I killed more than 30 Far Harbor Sea Creatures too...
No idea how to verify how many though...

It also isn't popping for me, and I think I've killed more than enough at this point.

If you turn off the Wind Farm, lots of sea creatures attack the pier. Enough to get me the achievement so I didn’t have to go searching for them.

If you still need some go to Waves Credt Orphanage at the bottom of the Island south of the Vim factory. There's a giant hermit crab and a load of hatchling ones that also count towards this.

Did anyone else have issues unlocking this achievement? I counted 30 killed using the hermit crab battle (there's 2 hermit crabs on the island that I know of) and still did not unlock. Others have had a similar issue checking google but no real trouble shooting tips to unlock it

As rare as they are, Hermit crabs do in fact count towards the achievement. The very first one I ever came across was the last thing I killed for the achievement

If rad chickens and hermit crabs work then do wolves work too? I’ve killed quite a few of them already so I might be a lot closer to
getting this if they count.

Is this bugged for anyone else, or does anyone know a workaround? There’s no way I haven’t NOT killed 30 of these creatures at this point..

I noticed that many achievements in this game have a problem, that sometimes they just don't unlock; the way is to go back to the save and try again, maybe you have to count exactly 30 kills, after that it doesn't release, no matter how many kills

Update: the hermit crab kills did not count for credit with kills but I did get the achievement using your method to finding anglers to kill. Thank you for the great guide!

Finally got this. I started a new play through and was counting the anglers and gulped. I even killed a rad chicken and rabbit or two. No ding... I killed a hermit crab and it's multitude of minions. No ding. After killing a glowing angler I spotted a fog crawler and killed it, then that's when the cheeve popped. I think for anyone having problems...you have to kill at least one of each type of far harbor creature to get credit.

Oddly enough, Rad Chickens also count, as it was killing a Rad Chicken which unlocked the achievement for me. Rad Rabbits may count as well.

Defeat 30 Far Harbor sea creatures.

Killing creatures which appear in the base game (such as mirelurks) will not count toward this goal. Only the sea creatures added by Far Harbor (Anglers, gulpers, hermit crabs, and variants thereof) must be killed to count toward this achievement.

You will run into sea creatures while completing your main quest and also while doing side quests. Far Harbor gives you a new creatures to hunt down e.g. Gulpers, Anglers and Fog Crawlers etc. It's best to stick towards the outer layer of the island, as you won't run into them much the further you go in. Any other creatures, besides those native to Far Harbor, will not count towards this trophy e.g. Mirelurks.

Far Harbor is home to an entirely new ecosystem. Some of the new creatures you'll stumble across during your missing persons case and side quests include Gulpers, Anglers, and massive Fog Crawlers. These creatures aren't all that common when traveling inland, but so long as you explore the coasts and stick to the waters and swamps, you should have this done in no time.

Use the following commands for this:
 
  • "tgm" (god mode and unlimited ammo)
  • "player.additem 0021A53E" (equip the Big Boy weapon)
  • "player.placeatme 06009583 30" (30 anglers spawn)
  • Shoot the Big Boy into the ground at your feet to kill all the anglers.

Everything written above is nonsense. There are no places where you can farm new mobs, especially in the lumberyard, where they do not appear at all. I can only give three pieces of advice: do the DLS from the very beginning; walk near swamps and lakes; use vats to search for opponents. Mobs that appeared only in DLS are also considered, i.e. All sorts of swampers don't count.

They wrote that this trophy was almost plot-related and that many enemies would be killed during the campaign, but I had almost nothing but swampers and trappers, so this is the place where enemies consistently appear. More precisely, the line between Haddock Coa and Dockey Fringe Coa. Look around with VATS and kill the same anglers. If you run out of enemies, go and sleep for 24-48 hours, and then new ones will appear.
