Discover every deep-sea creature in the Abyssal Zenith collection with this detailed fishing guide. Master rods, bait and strategies.

Dive deep into Fisch’s Mariana’s Veil update, where the Abyssal Zenith bestiary hides 10 eerie fish – nine mandatory, one secret. All demand careful strategy. This guide strips away the guesswork. As the third challenge in Mariana’s Veil, this bestiary requires patience and precision. First, upgrade your submarine to navigate the crushing depths. Then, survive the labyrinthine maze to access the zone.
Each fish here follows strict rules: bait type, seasonal timing, weather conditions, and even the hour of the day matter. The toughest catches are mythical and secret species, which slow your progress by up to 95%. Forget relying on luck. Equip the Poseidon Rod, stockpile Truffle Worms, and use weather totems strategically.
How To Complete the Abyssal Zenith Bestiary?
The Abyssal Zenith bestiary is one of the hardest collections to complete in Fisch. It is part of the Mariana’s Veil update, located in the deep-sea biome. Before you start fishing, you need to upgrade your submarine and finish the Volcanic Vents and Challenger’s Deep areas. Once you reach Abyssal Zenith, you will have to deal with harsh conditions, rare fish, and strict time and weather requirements.
To complete the bestiary, you must catch nine out of ten available fish. Some fish have negative progress multipliers, meaning they take longer to reel in. Others require specific bait, seasons, or weather conditions. Below is the full list of fish you need to catch.
Abyssal Zenith Fish and Their Requirements
Each fish in Abyssal Zenith has specific bait, time, season, and weather conditions. Some are harder to catch due to their progress multipliers. Knowing the best conditions in advance will save time.

Best Rods and Enchantments for Abyssal Zenith
Abyssal Zenith does not have a specific rod requirement, but using high-resilience rods will make catching the mythical and secret fish much easier. The Poseidon Rod is highly recommended.
For enchantments, choose Quality or Resilient. These will help manage difficult catches, especially those with negative progress multipliers. If you struggle with rare fish, you can also stack luck-based enchants to increase your chances.
How To Prepare for Abyssal Zenith Fishing?

Reaching the Abyssal Zenith area takes time, so proper preparation is important. Here’s what you need to do before starting:
- Stock up on bait – Every fish in the bestiary requires a specific bait. Carry plenty so you don’t run out mid-session.
- Set your Innkeeper location – Since traveling back takes time, setting an Innkeeper checkpoint at Abyssal Zenith will save you trips.
- Use Totems for weather changes – Some fish only appear in rain, fog, or clear skies. Bring totems to adjust the weather and avoid long waits.
- Check the in-game time and season – Certain fish only spawn in specific seasons or at night. Plan your sessions accordingly.
- Upgrade your rod and enchantments – If you plan to catch legendary, mythical, or secret fish, having a strong rod with the right enchants will make the process easier.
Tips for Catching Rare and Secret Fish
Catching the rarest fish, like the Crowned Anglerfish, requires patience and strategy. Follow these tips to increase your chances:
- Use Truffle Worms sparingly – The Crowned Anglerfish and Infant Giant Seadevil both require them. Make sure you have enough before starting.
- Save weather-changing totems – Fog is a rare condition, and you’ll need it for the Crowned Anglerfish and Voidglow Ghostfish.
- Be prepared for slow progress – Fish with negative multipliers take longer to catch. Plan for extended fights.
- Catch easier fish first – Start with normal progress fish, then move on to tougher catches.
- Keep an eye on your bait supply – Running out of Truffle Worms, Squid, or Fish Heads will slow down progress significantly.
Abyssal Zenith is one of the most challenging fishing locations in Fisch. However, with proper preparation, the right tools, and a bit of patience, you can catch every fish in this deep-sea region.
