33 Redfish is an ocean fish species in Starsand Island, found along the coastline in the Ocean zone. Named for its reddish coloring, the Redfish is notable for having a split spawn schedule with two separate active periods each day. It appears during Summer and Autumn and responds to Bug Bait and Meat Bait. The Redfish is a mid-range ocean catch that fills an important slot in the Islandpedia's Aquatic Life section.

99 The Redfish has a split spawn schedule: it is active from 06:00 to 12:00 in the morning and again from 18:00 to midnight. There is a 6-hour gap in the afternoon (12:00 to 18:00) where the Redfish cannot be caught. This makes it one of the few fish in the game with two separate daily windows.

1313 Head to any ocean shoreline on the island during the Redfish's active hours. Equip your Fishing Rod and chum the water with Bug Bait or Meat Bait. The Redfish appears as a shadow near the shore and puts up moderate resistance. A basic or mid-tier Fishing Rod is sufficient for ocean shoreline catches.
