Make Bug Catching & Fishing Easier! | Coral Island Tips & Tricks

[@thenerdygirlnextdoor314]

WHAT. I've bought the game fairly recently and have put in around 30 hours and I only now learned that I can actually sneak up to bugs instead of dashing in and wildly flailing my net around like some crazy person 😂

[@jamesbrice3267]

The dash and strike technique? Technically not impossible.

[@zeroruno]

I suddenly imagined spongebob trying to catch jellyfish 😂

[@darkfaequeen9031]

Lol I've been doing that too!

[@astridmyst]

I find fishing in this game to be IMPOSSIBLE. Thank you for all these tip videos! They have been so helpful!

[@mugen3603]

I didn't know you're supposed to sneak when catching bugs. Here I am, dashing up to them, swinging wildly with my net and hoping I was fast enough to score a catch 😂

[@gwendolynbradley7382]

That silver koi is so hard, I've caught plenty of normal and copper ones but I haven't managed a silver or higher yet. Also you can buy the old bait from the beach shack too

[@CptCupcakeUk]

it took me a long time to get one too but i found the medium bait you craft did the trick took alot of days of going first thing in the morning in the entrance to the cavern though. you'll get it.

[@sarahsunstone]

I haven’t tried for it yet but it’s on my to-do list! The silver sardine was so tough!!

[@crystalcove4115]

Thank you so much for this because I struggle with the bug catching!! I didn’t realize that it lit up green like that 😮

[@selphia9109]

Thank you for this!❤ive been struggling with catching the legendary bugs😩will be using your tips in approaching bugs. Im also dying trying to catch giant seabass & giant stingray😩. As always all your tips & tricks are very helpful❤️much love always!!

[@sarahsunstone]

I hope they’ve been helpful!! I haven’t caught those either, but I did manage to finally catch my first legendary fish yesterday using the upgraded rod, the perks I mentioned in the video and some large bait to narrow it down on the specific fish size I needed. I think it bit on my third cast and wow I fought for my life to catch it. Others though have still been evading me!! If it takes too many casts I just try again another day

[@ashleystarbuck4286]

I started playing coral island yesterday following its release on console and im loving it so far. Been watching all your tips and tricks to help get started. Really great content thankyou so much and i hope you will continue with more videos now its full release. Ive subscribed patiently awaiting new videos 😊

[@LovelyTrendyCoolGirl]

Thank you so much, I assumed there aren't any fishing rod or net upgrades but didn't think that they become available with mastery lvls instead 😅 Gotta work on my fishing & bug catching 💪🎣🐞

[@sarahsunstone]

Yes!! Level up those skills and get the upgrades - they’re totally worth it imo! you got this!!

[@barbaracordelie]

Excellent tips and so helpful for all of us who are struggling with these tasks!

[@blehbleh1260]

They should put a timer for the consumables so we can see if it's already running out.

[@NannyOggins]

Marvellous tips there, Ill certainly try them. Many thanks.😊

[@fionanicholson2148]

Hi thank you for all your videos,. I'm new to Coral Island and they've been super helpful especially this one as I've been struggling with bug catching and even more with fishing. I love the game though and play it every chance I get

[@sahdogwrangler5594]

There are rice fields? Where? Thank you for this video! I was just commiserating on reddit about not being able to catch butterflies despite having the best net. Your tips are helpful, can't wait to put them into practice!

[@suteiisan]

if you stand in the farm animals pen, you can fish in the rice fields

[@AdamsOlympia]

I actually like the fishing mechanic more than Stardew .. It's more like managing tension from real fishing; Quite challenging but fun.

[@skyeblueoceanx]

I didn’t know the weird fishing spots gave different fish 😱

[@sarahsunstone]

yesss there's much more detail in the different areas that what I thought in the beginning. I was expecting: River, Ocean, Lake, Pond LOL

[@tanzy8696]

thank you for the tips and tricks!

[@jimmyselsmark7346]

I'm guessing your channel has gotten a few more visits recently as Coral Island is part of the monthly bundle ;) us newcommers are going to need to suck up as much info as possible, but it is hard to know how much of the info turns out to be outdated or even obsolete.

[@breezy_the_faere3997]

Soo I'm doing well with bug catching year 1 summer 14 but fishing.. I've caught 3 fish and trash and flyers that's all. And I'm wondering if getting the copper pole will even help?

[@oOMightyBeeOo]

I tried the fishing method you showed, but I still only get no quality fish and when it's a stronger fish my line breaks instantly from not fighting back. I'm so confused and need help!

[@SaGuets]

maybe improving it should help

[@thepainphantom]

I didn't even know you can forage trash cans lol. Thanks.

[@4PawSquad]

Thank you, this was very helpful

[@SaraMoreno-zy8ie]

Awesome tips! Shame I accidentally sold my bug net and can't try these out 😢

[@vigloglonecova5102]

one thing i need to know is how to not miss events bcs yes they tell me in the morning but i cant go there right away so i start something n then i miss the Cherry Blossom Potluck for 2nd time :,) i would love some alert thet it started at 9 so i can get moving n not get there at 15 when it ended at 14 pls tell me im not the problem n this happens to other ppl too lol xd

[@missdire]

It definitely happens to other people 😂 You get the event notification in the morning and then think "Okay, I'm going to go do this thing real quick," and then you get absorbed in what you're doing and completely forget 😂

[@jibrilnoflugel1702]

It happens to other people... but ur still the problem. Cmon theres a HUGE flyer in the corner reminding u that theres an event going on.

[@johniemyers5420]

thank you Sarah for the help tip and tricks, this will be most helpful for other and me we thank you for all your hard work. we all love you and wish you the best and you will go far in life. you bring sunshine in to the life's of the other and me and sunshine you bring keep the storm clouds away and bring happier time back and light up our day.,

[@celestialjuniper3890]

These tips are helpful but will they help against legendary fish im trying to catch a monkfish the last fish I need for spring

[@a.j.nunnaurbiz6535]

I have successfully used the dash method of bug catching when hunting those very shy, swift and rare bugs. Especially useful when I couldn't sneak close enough to net them before they became aware and fled... Also, I have noted that the angle of the net can be a little wonky, I've gotten very close to a bug, without the green indicator flashing. If that happens, I turn slowly back and forth to see if I just don't have the angle right, and sometimes it helps. New bait? Sweet! Thank you for this! I had to figure out a lot of this the hard way!

[@sarahsunstone]

I definitely think they will be refining the bug catching mechanics in updates to come! Even though this video is a little overdue, I hope you still found it helpful! Thank you!!

[@ryvetted]

Thank you!

[@miyeyoo]

Did not know i could adjust the game time speed 😭

[@peaceluvfever]

Not me not realizing you could upgrade your fishing rod and net....

[@ArMor-dp7nb]

Potion Permit have the best mechanic in fishing

[@jibrilnoflugel1702]

i dont remember potion permit having fishing mechanics. Best one ive seen is roots of pachas

[@aureliaholden5145]

So if I use medium bait will that increase my chances to catch the fish such as rainbow fish

[@NadMia27]

7:45 nah.. last resort option was to cheat.. 👀 i am struggling to catch SILVER STAR KOI FOR REAL!!! what the heck is wrong with this fish?!!

[@onyaenaturals]

Reeling the fish in via PS5 is a bit tough. I'm going to keep practicing though

[@skybeth1827]

@@onyaenaturals if you have found out how to sneak in ps5 please let me know lol, I feel so behind.

[@focusonmeplay]

Compared to Stardew Valley how difficult is the fishing mini game specifically when starting off

[@missdire]

Compared to Stardew, beginner fishing is SO much easier in Coral.

[@jibrilnoflugel1702]

@@missdire WTF, compared to stardew beginner fishing is SO much difficult in coral. Im in year 1 sumer 13 and ive catched like 4 or 5 fish in coral. In stardew, 1st raining day, i make lots of money by fishing.

[@kylacrossing2081]

I’m trying to find the rove beetle 😮

[@XiaoYingYing4545]

I play on steam deck console, what’s the button for sneaking up?

[@jibrilnoflugel1702]

holding the action button with the net equiped. 5 months laster i asume you discovered it yourself, but just in case XD

[@sangaywangdi8641]

My method: See the bug - Dash towards the bug(space) - Catch.

[@AnaFlor11]

[@nani1kanobi]

How do you have so much coin??

[@tonytimede]

Osmium ore is easy money.

[@garywalker4543]

The smoothie advice is a lie I only get 8 coins per smoothie not 145

[@jibrilnoflugel1702]

Dude, this video is from a year ago. It is not a lie, the game has been ADJUSTED.

[@opalharmony]

Yes! Just what I needed!!!

[@seanwilks7712]

I’m at level five in catching and the upgraded net is t available for me.

[@jordanlueck7612]

they got rid of the other types and replaced them with the upgrade versions. Ex) gold bug net
