Nivalis Nights Fishing Spots and Species

How boat progression opens new fishing locations and species, plus the future database standard.

Quick answer: Fishing expands as the player progresses: using a boat can reveal new spots and fish species. Exact location and species names still require final-game verification.

Physical fish simulation

Fish are not abstract random rolls. The developer says each fish has a physical representation, can follow other fish or bait and forms simulated shoals; the fish caught is the one visible in the water.

Why the boat matters

The Q&A says fishing expands over time and specifically connects the player’s boat with discovering additional spots and species. It does not publish an upgrade order, bait list or guaranteed catches.

Location page requirements

Every species guide will need a confirmed name, water location, access route, conditions, bait response, value and use. Screenshots alone will not establish rarity or spawn rules.
