1919 Orangespine Unicornfish shares Autumn/Winter Ocean availability with Butterflyfish. Both spawn in all weather, so a single coastal trip can target both species.Its afternoon start time (12 PM) means morning hours are free for other activities. Head to the coast after lunch for best results.At 98 Coins base (196 via the Merchant Ship at Starsand Port), it provides decent income during the colder seasons when some higher-value fish are unavailable.The horn-like protrusion (called a rostral bump in real-world unicornfish) is a purely visual feature in Starsand Island and does not affect gameplay.Check the All Fish guide for the complete list of fish across all zones.
