Can you catch the legendary largemouth bass as Arthur?

Yes, you can catch the Legendary Largemouth Bass as Arthur using specific glitches (like the Bronte glitch in Chapter 4) to access the New Austin area, but it's incredibly difficult and risky due to bounties and sniper fire; however, the quest only fully progresses and rewards you as John during the Epilogue, as Arthur isn't intended to go there.

Can you catch the 200 lb catfish in RDR2?

No, you cannot naturally catch the rumored 200 lb Legendary Channel Catfish in Red Dead Redemption 2; it's an infamous piece of cut content, a "fish tale" meant to be uncatchable, even though it appears in the Compendium and has game files, with its quest ending in the mysterious disappearance of fisherman Jeremy Gill. While some players have used PC mods to spawn its model (which glitches and is massive), it's not a legitimate part of the game's intended experience, leaving it as a legendary mystery.

Is there a trick to catching legendary fish in RDR2?

Use a full RDR2 legendary fish map for precise coordinates. Each location corresponds to either a lake, river, or swamp setting. Using the proper RDR2 special lure for that environment – lake, river, or swamp – is essential. If you use the wrong one, like a lake lure in a swamp, you won't attract the legendary fish.

What is the rarest animal to find in RDR2?

The rarest animal in RDR2 is widely considered the Carolina Parakeet, an endangered bird with very few spawns (around 25-40 total) in the Bayou Nwa area, tying into a mini-challenge to drive them to extinction in-game, making them incredibly hard to find and track, alongside other elusive spawns like the Coastal Horned Owl or unique circus animals in stranger missions.

Is it possible to get to Tumbleweed as Arthur?

Can Arthur get all the legendary fish?

You can catch most legendary fish as Arthur, but the final few in New Austin and West Elizabeth are practically impossible without using glitches because of the "wanted dead or alive" status, invisible snipers, and bounty hunters; while you can glitch to catch them and mail them in, the quest only fully progresses and rewards you in the epilogue as John Marston, so the short answer is no, not legitimately.

What is the biggest fish you can catch in Red Dead Redemption 2?

The biggest fish in RDR2 is the legendary Channel Catfish, a mythical creature described as massive (around 180 lbs) and residing in the San Luis River, though it's technically "uncatchable" through normal gameplay, existing as a game file.

Is it possible to catch the legendary bluegill with Kieran?

Yes, you absolutely can catch the Legendary Bluegill with Kieran during his companion fishing mission in Chapter 3 of Red Dead Redemption 2, provided you have a Special Lake Lure and trigger the event with the naked swimmer, leading to some unique dialogue if Arthur catches it. You need the special lure (not a regular one), and the interaction with the swimmer triggers the location, making the fishing trip with Kieran a perfect time to snag it.

What is the 80/20 rule in fishing?

The 80/20 rule in fishing (Pareto Principle) suggests that 80% of the fish are caught by 20% of the anglers, using 20% of the lures, in 20% of the water. It means focusing on the "vital few" factors: identifying productive spots (structure, currents, tides), using a few effective lures/flies (like pheasant tails or trusted bass jigs), and understanding that most catches happen in specific conditions or areas, not everywhere. Applying it means simplifying your approach by identifying and maximizing these key inputs for better results.

What is the 90/10 rule in fishing?

The 90/10 fishing rule states that 90% of feeding fish are concentrated in just 10% of the water at any given time, meaning anglers should focus their efforts on finding these productive "hot spots" rather than fishing vast, unproductive areas. This principle helps anglers eliminate "dead zones" and identify key features like structure (rocks, docks, grass) and baitfish presence, especially when considering factors like tide, current, wind, and season to pinpoint where fish are holding for cover, ambush points, and food.

Does rain help or hurt fishing?

No, fishing in the rain isn't inherently bad; it can actually be great because rain increases oxygen, washes food into the water, and breaks up the surface, making fish bolder and less wary, but safety is key—avoid lightning and rough, flood-prone waters, and remember prolonged heavy rain can eventually turn fish off.

Do legendary animals respawn in RDR2?

No, legendary animals in Red Dead Redemption 2 (Story Mode) do not respawn once hunted, but their unique pelts and parts automatically go to the Trapper and Fence, allowing you to craft all available gear and trinkets without needing to kill them multiple times. In Red Dead Online, they can respawn, but often require specific conditions, server hops, or Naturalist role triggers; killing one puts a 72-hour cooldown on that specific animal, but you can find others.

Can you save Buell for John?

Yes, you can keep Buell as John in Red Dead Redemption 2 by not completing the final part of Hamish Sinclair's "The Veteran" questline as Arthur; you must start the quest with Arthur, but save the final mission for John to claim Buell as a permanent horse after the epilogue begins. Arthur's horses are lost, but saving the last mission ensures a Buell spawns for John to bond with and keep, which involves bonding with him and stabling him.

What is the rarest horse breed in RDR2?

The rarest horse in RDR2 is subjective, but many players point to the Few-Spotted Appaloosa, the Splashed White American Paint, or one-time mission horses like Buell (American Standardbred) or Hosea's Raven Black Shire, as these often have unique conditions, limited spawns, or are tied to specific, missable encounters, making them harder to find than the popular but common-to-find White Arabian.
