How to unlock the You're a Catch achievement in Far Cry New Dawn - Definitive Guide

You will need to catch 6 fish to score this achievement. Just as ComboChrist has mentioned this is much easier than in Far Cry 5 since you don't need bait anymore. The fishing rod is unlocked via perk.

You also get one perk point for every new fish you catch.

Here's all the fish you need to catch. Some of them have challenges associated with them, others do not.

Fish 1: Rainbow Trout
Fish 2: Bull Trout
Fish 3: Smallmouth Bass
Fish 4: Chinook Salmon
Fish 5: Largemouth Bass
Fish 6: Paddlefish Sturgeon

Here's a great guide to fishing in Far Cry 5 New Dawn from PowerPyx! Make sure to give him a thumbs up on YouTube, his guide videos are incredibly well done:

Largemouth Bass and Paddlefish Sturgeon do not have challenges.

That means if you are at 66% on the achievement completion but have all the fishing challenges, those are the 2 you are missing.

To unlock the You're a Catch trophy in Far Cry New Dawn, you will need to catch one of each of the six different types of fish in the game.

The first step will be to purchase the Fishing Rod perk for two perk points, which will add a fishing rod to your weapon wheel. The Outdoor Enthusiast perk available for 7 perk points will also help as it makes reeling in fish easier once they are hooked.

The six types of fish you will need to catch in Far Cry New Dawn are and their locations are below:

Rainbow Trout: Southwest of The Chop Shop at the southern edge of the map. From the houses found there, go southwest towards the start of the trees.
Bull Trout: West of the Chop Shop, near the water.
Smallmouth Bass: Directly south of the Broken Forge Outpost.
Chinook Salmon: West of the Broken Forge Outpost on the left side of the river.
Largemouth Bass: Southeast of Sacred Lumber / southwest from Trailer Town at the river.
Paddlefish Sturgeon: Southeast of The Watering hole Outpost / east of The Island Outpost. Fish on the upper side of the small stretched island.

The shark and demon fish are not needed for the You're a Catch trophy.

You can purchase maps from the Cartography Center that will reveal the locations if you're struggling to find any.

Just a quick note to add to this: if you're missing fish after completing all the fishing challenges, the 2 you're missing are the Paddlefish Sturgeon and Largemouth Bass.

No, not the whole list, you still need to catch a paddlefish (found at the top of the map), after which they gave you a trophy.

Personally, I never wanted to catch largemouth bass. I did this: the place where you need to catch him is at the top of the map, it’s shallow there, so I threw out a fishing rod and as soon as he bit, I didn’t pull, but simply ran after him through the water.
