Heartopia Fishing Guide – Fish List, Locations & Sell Prices

by

Fishing is one of the strongest early-to-late game gold systems in Heartopia. Every river, lake, and sea zone contains different fish tiers, star-rank value scaling, and time-based spawn windows that directly affect your profit and progression speed. When used correctly, fishing can generate thousands of gold per session while also feeding cooking, animal bonding, and crafting loops.

This guide documents every known fish, their spawn locations, activity windows, weather requirements, and exact star-based sell prices so you can plan profitable fishing routes instead of relying on RNG.

How Fishing Value Works

Each fish has up to five star tiers.
Higher stars multiply sell price dramatically.

General profit rule:

• 1–3★ fish → Cook for more profit
• 4–5★ rare fish → Sell raw
