11Overview22Ide is a freshwater fish species found in the lake zones of Starsand Island. It is a solid mid-tier catch at 101g per fish, sharing its price point with the Koi, Betta, Arowana, and Tilapia. What makes the Ide particularly convenient is its flexibility: it appears in two seasons (spring and winter), bites in any weather, is active nearly around the clock (06:00 to 02:00), and accepts all three bait types.44Lake fishing spots can be found across the island, including Cloudrest Lake near Hopeland. The Ide is a reliable catch for players looking to fill their Islandpedia without fighting strict weather or time conditions.77Catch Details99PropertyValueZoneLakeSell Price101gSeasonSpring, WinterWeatherAnyTime06:00 - 02:00BaitBug Bait, Meat Bait, Veggie BaitOxygen Requirement31111How to Catch1212Ide is one of the most forgiving fish to catch in the game. It shows up during spring and winter regardless of weather, stays active for 20 hours (06:00 to 02:00 the next day), and responds to all three bait types: Bug Bait, Meat Bait, and Veggie Bait. Simply head to any lake fishing spot, toss in whatever bait you have on hand, and start casting.1414The Ide does not put up a particularly hard fight, making it manageable even with the Wooden Rod. Reel when the indicator is white and release when it turns red. With its wide availability and gentle temperament, the Ide is a great species for newer anglers still learning the fishing mechanics.1616Selling and Profit1818At 101g per fish, Ide offers a respectable but not outstanding return for a lake catch. The Merchant Ship at Starsand Port pays 202g per Ide. For better returns, process Ide into Fish Fillet at the Separator and cook dishes. The ease of catching Ide in bulk makes it a reliable source of Fish Fillet for recipe crafting.2020Recipes Using Fish Fillet2222Ide can be turned into Fish Fillet at the Separator.
