33 Green Sunfish is a small, colorful freshwater fish found in the Lake zones of Starsand Island, including Cloudrest Lake and other freshwater bodies across the island. It is one of the more common lake species, making it a solid early catch for players working through the Angler Profession questline. Despite its modest sell price, Green Sunfish has practical value as a cooking ingredient and a reliable source of Fish Fillet.

88 Green Sunfish can be found in any Lake fishing spot during Spring and Summer. Head to Cloudrest Lake or the smaller ponds scattered around the island. Equip your Fishing Rod and toss either Bug Bait or Meat Bait into the water before casting. Green Sunfish appear between 12:00 PM and 2:00 AM, so afternoon and evening fishing sessions are ideal. They bite in both Sunny and Rainy weather, which gives you a wide window to target them.
