The Complete Angelfish Fishing Location Guide

I’ve noticed a recurring trend of people seeking help with Angelfish locations. Frequently, the advice given is to check the “Willow Creek Rivers,” which used to be accurate according to the guides. However, it seems this information is now outdated due to significant fishing patches that have been overlooked and not updated.

To address this, I decided to conduct a thorough investigation and personally tested all the fishing spots to identify EXACTLY where Angelfish can be found. After completing the fishing requirements, I can confidently state that there are 45 Angelfish fishing spots if you haven’t explored all the pack worlds.

To identify these spots easily, just observe the spawner visually. Angelfish are visible in the spawner, making it straightforward to determine whether a particular location contains them. I made sure to catch at least one Angelfish in each spot and even spent several Sim days in some spots where they were clearly absent, just to confirm my findings. As a result, I didn’t catch any Angelfish in those locations, which wasn’t surprising at all.

If you spot Angelfish in the spawners, you’ve found the correct location!

I meticulously explored every neighborhood, world, and even the secret lots. Unfortunately, there are no Angelfish spots in Glimmerbrook, but I did find one in the Magic Realm. Additionally, I checked Granite Falls and Selvadorada, but no Angelfish were present there. I must admit that I didn’t investigate the occupation worlds or Sixam as I don’t believe they have any fishing spots to begin with.

In Sylvan Glade, you won’t find any Angelfish. However, in the Forgotten Grotto, there are three spots, and happily, two of these spots are home to Angelfish.

It’s worth noting that two of the spawners are stacked on top of each other in a way that allows you to easily spot the Angelfish. After spending 48 sim hours at the red spawner with no success, I moved to the other one, where I caught an Angelfish on the first attempt.

As for Willow Creek, the Community lot neighborhood has the highest concentration of Angelfish spots, totaling 6 locations, all of which are known to have Angelfish. Additionally, the two fishing spots in front of Oakenstead also have Angelfish, but not the ones on the backside of the bridge.

The two front Oakenstead spots have Angelfish too.

In Oasis Springs, you’ll be delighted to know that nearly every fishing spot is home to Angelfish. Especially along the river strip, which happens to be my personal favorite spot, you’ll find an abundance of Angelfish. I managed to catch my first one at fishing level 6, and from there, they just kept coming in rapidly. It’s truly a fantastic location for Angelfish enthusiasts!

In this area, there are a total of three fishing spots, with an additional one located further to the left. However, please be aware that the park is an exception, and Angelfish cannot be found there. So, for the best chances of catching Angelfish, focus on the spots within this area and avoid the park. Happy fishing!

In Oasis Springs, every fishing hole except for the upper red spot contains Angelfish. Despite spending 48 sim hours trying, no Angelfish were found in that particular spot, which was quite disappointing.

On a more positive note, when you visit Center Park in San Myshuno, you’ll discover three fishing holes, and all of them are teeming with Angelfish. So, if your goal is to catch Angelfish, Center Park in San Myshuno should be your top choice. Happy fishing!

Among the two neighborhoods with fishing spots, only one of them contains Angelfish.

In Newcrest, Forgotten Hollow, Brindleton Bay, and Sulani, every fishing spot you come across will have Angelfish available for catching.

The easiest Angelfish spots, according to my experience, are the ones along the river in Oasis Springs. Fishing here is effortless and quick, and I didn’t even need to use any bait; the regular Go Fishing option worked perfectly.

After legitimately catching some Angelfish, I decided to experiment and used cheats to give myself the Focused moodlet. This was mainly to identify which spots were viable for catching Angelfish, not to make it easier. For the best chance of success, I also used the “Angle for Big Catch” option during my cheat-testing phase.

Where to find and catch Angelfish

Sims 4 players have the opportunity to discover and catch Angelfish in a total of 45 locations, provided they have access to all the pack worlds. Among these locations, Willow Creek stands out as the most popular spot for Angelfish fishing.

To enhance your chances of success when fishing for Angelfish, the recommended bait to use is bass and frogs. However, keep in mind that Angelfish are extremely rare, so patience is key to successfully catching one.

To ensure you have a steady supply of bait during your Angelfish fishing endeavors, head to the ponds in Willow Creek to catch 5 or 6 frogs before you begin your fishing efforts. This way, you won’t run out of bait after your initial attempts and can continue fishing without interruptions. Happy fishing and good luck in your pursuit of the elusive Angelfish!

How To Catch An Angelfish in Sims 4?

Step 1: Acquire the Fishing Skill

Before you can catch an angelfish, you need to have a Sim with a high enough fishing skill. You can increase your Sim’s fishing skill by fishing in different locations and catching different types of fish. As your Sim’s skill level increases, they will be able to catch more difficult fish, including the elusive angelfish.

Step 2: Locate the Angelfish

Angelfish can be found in a few different locations throughout the game, including Oasis Springs and Willow Creek. You can also check the fishing spots in each area to see if an angelfish is available. Keep in mind that angelfish can be rare and difficult to catch, so it may take some time and patience to find one.

Step 3: Choose the Right Bait and Equipment

Once you have located an angelfish, you need to make sure you have the right equipment and bait. Angelfish prefer bait that is small and colorful, such as the rainbow trout or minnows. Make sure to equip your Sim with the appropriate fishing rod and bait before attempting to catch an angelfish.

Step 4: Fish in the Right Spot

Angelfish tend to swim in deeper waters, so make sure to cast your line in a deep enough spot. You can use the “Fishing Info” option to see the depth of the water in a particular fishing spot. If the water is too shallow, you may not be able to catch an angelfish.

Step 5: Reel in the Angelfish

Once you have cast your line and attracted an angelfish, it’s time to reel it in. Angelfish can be tricky to catch, so be patient and don’t rush the process. Keep an eye on the tension meter and use the “Reel In” option when the tension is low. If the tension gets too high, you may lose the fish.

Step 6: Take Care of Your Angelfish

After you have caught an angelfish, it’s important to take care of it properly. You can either keep it as a pet in your aquarium or sell it for profit. Make sure to provide your angelfish with a suitable environment, including proper lighting and filtration. If you decide to sell your angelfish, make sure to price it appropriately based on its rarity and value.

In conclusion, catching an angelfish in Sims 4 can be a fun and rewarding experience. By following these steps and being patient, you can increase your Sim’s fishing skill and catch some of the rarest fish in the game. Remember to take care of your angelfish properly, whether you decide to keep it as a pet or sell it for profit. Happy fishing!
