How to unlock the Upstream achievement in The Walking Dead: The Final Season - Definitive Guide

BEFORE GOING FOR THIS IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU GO TO THE MAIN MENU AND MAKE A COPY OF YOUR SAVE SO YOU CAN DO BOTH OPTIONAL PATHS WITHOUT RESTARTING THE ENTIRE EPISODE.

This achievement is gained during Act 2 after choosing to go Fishing. Once you grab the spear and meet Violet by the water, she will ask you to catch fish swimming upstream. During this mini-game, you will need to catch 3 fish in 3 tries. Use your cursor to aim over the fish and RT to use the spear. If the cursor is red when the button is pressed, the fish will be caught. Keep in mind that the fish move diagonally up and across the screen as they swim. The following missable achievement can be seen in the video below at 5:03:

If you miss a spear, immediately back out to the main menu and re-enter the game to have another try at doing this. Unfortunately, you will need to listen to about 2-3 minutes of dialogue for every attempt.

I don't think this game's sudden shift into actual achievements was what hurt Telltale. But man, it's jarring going from a casual achievement franchise to keeping this site open next to you the entire time.

I feel the opposite. These make the game so much better. The other games you can literally set down the controller for 95% of the game and let it play for you. At least now you actually have to play it.

These achievements ruined the game for me. I wish it was like before. Just sit back, enjoy the story without having to worry about shit like this.

A big help is to turn up your camera sensitivity setting for this part. Makes it much easier to move your cursor in time for the final fish. This should be added to the guide

If you choose to go fishing during Act 2, you need to spear 3 fish. The first one is pretty slow and the cursor is almost over it. Move the cursor until it turns red, hit RT. There is some dialogue then another fish to spear. Repeat the same process as for the first fish. There is then more dialogue and then another fish to spear. This time I advise to let the first fish go by, as it’s very fast and hard to spear. The next one is slower and easier to hit.

If you miss any of them, you will need to quit to the main menu and then continue the episode. Unfortunately the checkpoint is a bit far back and you have to go thru some dialogue, pick up the spear etc.

It took me 3 shots to get this, so good luck.

p.s. there may be an even slower fish for the 3rd attempt, but I didn’t wait to see. If anyone finds out there is, please let me know and I’ll amend the solution.

Anyone else feel like this one needed a checkpoint?

This one needs a checkpoint right after you pick the spear up. I mean, seriously, the achievements in this game.

Anyway for this one, I just camped my cursor at the general location where the 3rd fish of the 3rd attempt will appear, and wait for it to swim past. It always appears at the bottom so no chasing after it, just a quick spear as it swims into my cursor location.

@Apostle92627 where is it putting you? It's odd for me that yesterday i played it and it started me back at the school before making the choice but today i played and i got a checkpoint for this and the rabbit one to where your walking to the shack or the hunting part so it wasn't as bad as when i first played. I didn't get a update so not sure how this changed but they are still a pain in the rear with this one being the easy one of the 2.

*Missable*

At the beginning of Act 2 you'll need to choose to go fishing to unlock this achievement. I highly recommend making a duplicate save file at the start of Act 2 so you can unlock all achievements in one playthrough.

After you obtain the spear inside the shack, you'll go fishing with Violet. This is a minigame you have to play three times, and each time the fish get faster. You need to spear a fish in each of the three minigames before time runs out. The achievement description here is very misleading - you don't need to spear every single fish, since that's not possible, just one fish per attempt. Each time, a few fish will swim by. You need to put your crosshair over a fish and interact when your crosshair turns red. If you miss a fish you'll void this achievement, so be ready because it gets faster as you go, and you'll need to be quick and accurate to not miss one. If you miss a fish, quit out to the main menu and continue your game to try again.

Once you get all three fish on your first attempt, you'll unlock this achievement.

MISSABLE

The start of Act 2, you will have the option to go hunting or fishing, choose to go fishing. After you arrive at the area, you'll need to pick up a spear. Then you'll be tasked with helping out catching fish. For this, you must make sure you do not miss any fish. If you do, reload the game and start over from the last checkpoint (grab the collectable again). You should be aiming near the bottom of the steam when you do this.

When you choose to go fishing, you block the “Hunting Season” trophy. Before choosing, I advise you to make a save on a flash drive.

you need to catch all the fish on the first try. We missed an attempt, let's replay the passage.
