11Overview22AquaBlue Outpost is the island's fishing shop, run by Delphin, the Angler profession mentor. Located on the right side of the docks at Half-Moon Bay, the building has an elevator leading down to an ocean observatory. The shop is open 8 AM to 10 PM daily.44The Outpost stocks all Angler blueprints in the game, from basic rod upgrades to aquariums and fish ponds. Like other profession shops, inventory is gated by your Angler certification tier. Delphin also acts as the Angler mentor, assigning trial quests that advance your certification and unlock deeper fishing areas.66Fishing Rod Progression88Rods unlock as you advance your Angler profession rank. Better rods reduce tension buildup during the fishing minigame, making it far easier to land rare and high-value fish. Each rod is a blueprint that must be crafted at a workbench after purchase.1010RodTierKey MaterialsNotesWooden RodStarterFree from DelphinGiven when you begin the Angler professionChrono RodApprenticeCopperFirst upgrade; noticeable tension reductionSilent RodJuniorCarbon Line, CharcoalQuieter casting; less likely to scare fishCloud RodJuniorMid-tier materialsBalanced rod for general fishingNoble RodJuniorPrism, Iron SheetsStrong upgrade for intermediate fishingSolar RodIntermediateAdvanced materialsEndgame-quality rod; tension bar barely movesTitanium RodSeniorTitanium materialsTop-tier rod for the hardest catchesAstra RodSeniorRare materialsAlternative to Titanium with different handling1212Blueprint Inventory by Angler Tier1414Beyond rods, the Outpost sells blueprints for bait production, aquariums, fish ponds, and fish traps.

Different fish species prefer different bait types, and using the correct bait significantly increases your catch rate for target species.3535Bait TypeMade FromAttractsMeat BaitMeat resources (raw meat, poultry)Carnivorous fish (sharks, tuna, predatory species)Veggie BaitVegetable resources (crops, foraged plants)Herbivorous fish (common freshwater and coastal species)Bug BaitInsect resources (caught with Bug Net)Picky species that only respond to insect baitOmni (no bait)N/AFish with no bait preference (use no bait or any type)3737You can catch bugs using the Bug Net to supply Bug Bait ingredients. Crafting bait at home is far cheaper than buying it, so prioritize the Chopper I blueprint early.3838Aquariums and Fish Ponds4040Aquariums4242Aquariums are decorative display tanks that show your caught fish. They come in five sizes (XS through XL), unlocking progressively through Angler tiers. The Aquarium inside the AquaBlue Outpost (on the lower observatory level) is a community exhibit. To advance to Senior Angler, you must fill this aquarium with 20 different fish species. Contributing fish to the community aquarium is separate from placing fish in your personal tanks at home.4444AquariumTier RequiredCube Aquarium XSApprenticeCube Aquarium SJuniorCube Aquarium MIntermediateCube Aquarium LSeniorCube Aquarium XLExpertAquarium Building Manual (custom room)Expert4646Fish Ponds4747Fish Ponds let you raise fish on your farm. Place caught fish into a pond and they will produce additional fish over time, creating a passive income stream. Ponds unlock at Junior Angler and get bigger at Intermediate tier.4949PondTier RequiredSmall Fish PondJuniorStone Fish PondJuniorMedium Fish PondIntermediate5151Fish Traps5252Fish Traps are unlocked at Intermediate Angler. Place them in any body of water and check back later to collect whatever fish they caught. This is completely passive, requiring no stamina or minigame interaction. Traps provide steady daily income once deployed. See Fish Traps for optimal placement locations.5454Deep-Sea Fishing Access5656The docks at Half-Moon Bay are also the gateway to deep-sea fishing zones. After completing the Starsand Port Construction quest (requires 15 Stone and 15 Softwood, given by Marston), you unlock access to three premium offshore zones:5858Coral Sea: Shallow reef fishing with tropical speciesLuminwave: Mid-depth zone; home to high-value Tuna and Mola Mola (Sunfish)Celestwave: The deepest zone; rare nocturnal species like Ribbon Eel6060You can rent yachts for 150 Coins per hour or use the Parrot Ship for fast travel between zones.6262Ocean Observatory6464Below the shop floor, accessible via elevator, is an ocean observatory with panoramic underwater views. This is a two-generation, 30-year project built by Delphin's family. The community Aquarium is housed here, and filling it with 20 fish species is required for the Senior Angler certification. The observatory is worth visiting early on for the lore and atmosphere.6666Delphin6868Delphin is your childhood friend, the Angler profession mentor, and the owner of AquaBlue Outpost. Born into a noble family on the X Continent, he experienced family turmoil after his mother's death and his father's remarriage. At age 10 he relocated to Starsand Island with his aunt, a surfing instructor. He won his first surfing competition at 12, earned a magazine cover at 15, and maintained an undefeated competition record until age 24, when he mostly retired from competing.7070DetailInfoBirthdayMonth 2, Day 3GenderMaleHeight185 cmWeight70 kgRomanceableYes7272Delphin is wild, rebellious, and does not like following rules. He prefers the quiet of the ocean and starts his days at dawn along the beach. When you first arrived on the island, you encouraged and helped him; before you left, you were his only friend. He can often be found outside lifting weights or inside at the observatory. His residence is directly across from the store, accessible at 3+ hearts of affection.7373Note: Delphin was referred to as "Francis" in some pre-release materials and early guides. The finalized English name is Delphin.7575Gift Preferences7777CategoryItemsLovedBlue Orchid, Light Blue Hydrangea, MoonflowerLikedDragon Fruit, Frost Fizz, Grilled Chicken Wings, Mirage Sunflower, Plain Noodles, Red Grape Jam, Strawberry, Veggie NoodlesDislikedBlue Angelfish, Boxfish, Clownfish, Stir-Fried PeanutsHatedGlowing Shell7979Loved gifts give 15 Affection Points, liked gifts give 10. Community gift guides disagree on Red Beaded Starfish for Delphin, so it is left unconfirmed here. See the Gift Guide for the complete list of all NPC preferences.8080Angler Profession Overview8282The Angler profession is one of five professions in Starsand Island. It focuses on catching fish, upgrading rods, and filling aquariums. See Angler Trial Walkthroughs for detailed step-by-step guides for each tier. Fishing is one of the best early income sources: fish sell at any shop in the game, and even raw fish fetch solid prices without cooking.8484Each cast costs 10 Energy. The fishing minigame involves aiming your cast, waiting for a bite, then managing line tension. The line indicator turns white (safe to reel) or red (stop reeling or the line snaps). Better rods reduce how quickly the tension bar fills, making rare catches significantly easier.8686Tips8888Get the free Novice Rod immediately.
