Genshin Impact: Fishing Associations Guide

Genshin Impact has added fishing to the game and players can now wander around Mondstadt, Liyue, and Inazuma in search of fish to trade for rewards. These trades are made at the Fishing Association in each region, which sounds incredibly grand but is in fact just an NPC chilling out on the coast.

In this quick guide we show you where each Fishing Association is located, the rewards they offer, and the fish you'll need to catch in order to make a trade.

Where To Find Ornamental Fish

Ornamental fish are rare versions of regular fish. When approaching a fishing spot if you see a blue pillar of light this means that there are ornamental fish in this location. They cannot be traded since they count as furnishing items.

You'll be able to spot the ornamental fish easily since they often jump out of the water, unlike regular fish. To catch them simply use the same bait you would usually. The only difference is that sometimes you'll need to reel them in for a little longer, so having the region-specific fishing rods can help with this.

How To Add Ornamental Fish To Your Pond

Once you've caught the fish and crafted the Pool of Sapphire Grace, you'll need to place the pond down in your Serenitea Pot. Next, simply walk up to the water and you will see a Raise Fish option appear. Click this and select the ornamental fish you want to add.

At this point, fish appear to be decorative only with no other use and will not breed.
