Dredge is an exploration game where players captain a fishing trawler to explore remote islands and their surrounding depths. With over 125 deep-sea denizens to discover, players must sell their catch to the locals and complete quests to learn more about each area’s troubled past while being aware of the fog that cloaks the night-time seas! If you need to know how to find Blue Mackerels in Dredge, we have a guide to help you start!
How to find Blue Mackerels
Blue Mackerels are one of the earliest fish you’ll encounter in the game, and they are found in coastal waters during the day in The Marrows. You can catch them with any fishing rod that works for coastal waters (including the starting rod along with the Flexible Fishing Pole, Anti-Tangle Line, Versatile Rod, and Harvesting Platform, which require spending research parts) or net (Improved Trawl Net, Tempered Mesh Net, Large Trawl Net, or Heavy-Duty Trawl Net, which require spending research parts).
Be on the look out for any aberrations of Blue Mackerels, which include Grotesque Mackerels, Lumpy Mackerels, and Many-Eyed Mackerels.
It is important to have a range of fishing rods and catching equipment in order to bring in a diverse catch each time you take your boat out. For example, you will come across different depths of water just leaving the starting area (The Greater Marrows) on your very first expedition from shallow to coastal. Since one of the primary goals is to sell fish and maximize your profits, being able to fish all possible areas you encounter will improve the profits from your catch.
You’ll also need to research special equipment and upgrade your boat’s capabilities in order to catch rarer fish and more valuable, deep-sea curios and hidden treasures. Selling these discoveries to the locals can also lead to learning more about each area and upgrading the boat to reach even more secluded locations.
