Monster Hunter Wilds: Fishing For Flavor Side Quest Guide

In Monster Hunter Wilds, optional quests offer rewards beyond monster hunting. NPCs at various bases provide these quests, rewarding players with money, guild points, and materials.

One such quest, "Fishing for Flavor," unlocks after completing Chapter 3. It requires catching the elusive Gravid Bowfin. The game doesn't provide location or catching instructions, making this quest challenging.

Starting "Fishing for Flavor"

Speak to Kanya at Scarlet Forest's Base Camp (near the pond at the far end). This quest is available in Chapter 4 and is her third side quest. You must complete the initial fishing tutorial and "Seeking the Goldenfish" quest beforehand. Kanya will then task you with catching the Gravid Bowfin.

Locating the Gravid Bowfin

Surprisingly, the Gravid Bowfin can be found in Kanya's pond. However, its appearance is sporadic; reloading or fast traveling may be necessary. Additional spawning locations include Icy Shore (Iceshard Cliffs) and the Oasis (Windward Plains).

Spawning chances increase during Plenty Season and at night. The Gravid Bowfin is easily identifiable: light brown with bright green eyes, slender body, and small, rounded head. If not visible, try fast traveling.

Catching the Gravid Bowfin

Use the Emerald Jitterbait lure. Cast near the fish, reel slightly, and wait for it to bite. Once caught, return to Kanya to complete the quest. The fish is yours to keep and can be used in cooking.

The Jeweled Mullet Roe, acquired from each Gravid Bowfin, serves as a "Finishing Touch" ingredient, boosting Elemental Resistance by five while active.
