Shark Week

Happy Shark Week!

Hello Wizards, it’s Erin EagleCaller, and Shark Week is here! All week in Wizard101, we’re celebrating the fantastic sharks of the Spiral!

During this event, you have a chance to catch the Warhammerhead as well as all seven Stubby Sharks. It’s also the perfect time to catch the seasonal fish, the Basking in the Sun Shark! You can find these magnificent fish scattered in various locations throughout the Spiral.

Shark Week comes to the Spiral but once a year. Usually near the end of July or the first week of August. Yet, it’s one of the few times; we can find all the Stubby Sharks together (except the Warhammerhead). It’s a big opportunity for Wizard101’s Fishing enthusiasts. You won’t want to miss it!

In light of this, allow me to fill you in on how you can catch these magical fish.

Warhammerhead and Stubby Sharks

The best spots to find the Warhammerhead and Stubby Sharks are in the Commons and Northguard. Since they’re both Rank 2, use the Rank 2 Winnow to help find them. Then using Reveal Fish School spell to help catch them all.

You’ll want to use the corresponding lure to the shark that you want to catch. I’d suggest a minor or common fishing lure of the same school to capture them.

If you don’t have the Rank 2 Winnow spell, you can get around it using Reveal Fish Rank 1. Because the Warhammerhead and the Stubby Sharks are all Rank 2 fish, the spell won’t mark them. That way, you can be sure that it is a Warhammerhead or Stubby Shark! Remember, all Stubby Sharks are the same rank regardless of school.

Basking in the Sun Shark

Don’t forget to catch the Summer Fish, the Basking in the Sun Shark! They’re staying with us for the entire Summer; if you don’t find one during Shark Week, don’t fret! Remember to snag one before the season ends to complete your shark collection.

The Commons is the best choice for finding the Basking in the Sun Shark. Using reveal fish school, take notice to which are fish are Fire school. Then using any Fire Lure, you’ll want to catch the larger fish in the pond. The Basking in the Sun Shark is almost double the length of your lure, making them easy to spot.

Shark Locations

Warhammerhead

The Warhammerhead is in Wizard City’s Triton Avenue; yet, they’re not a common catch. So, it’s not the ideal spot to find them.

This shark is also found in Grizzleheim. Look for them in Northguard, Helgrind Warren, Mirkholm Keep, and the Vigrid Roughland.

This fish can be housed in a Regular Aquarium

Stubby Sharks and Basking in the Sun Sharks

Stubby Sharks and Basking in the Sun Sharks have a wide range of fishing spots. They’re in Wizard City, Krokotopia, Mooshu, Grizzleheim, Zafaria, and Avalon.

In Wizard City, they are in the Commons. If you’ve begun the Immortal Games in Aquila, these sharks are also in the Garden of Hesperides.

As for the other worlds, you can find them in the Oasis, the Jade Palace, Northguard, the Baobab Crossroads, and Caliburn.

Although less common, the Basking in the Sun Shark can be found in every Castle or House that has a fishing pond.

Both of these fish can be housed in a Regular Aquarium.

Starting Fishing: Grizzleheim

One beautiful part of Wizard101 is fishing. It can be a great way to spend some time with friends without the pressure of battle and strategy. Fishing will take you to some corners of the Spiral you may not have taken the time to explore before. Like any great hobby in Wizard101, it can lead to some great rewards.
 
We saw the key spells that you get from Lucky Hookline in the previous Wizard City fishing article. Next, he will give us a new quest after we have completed the quest “Fishful Thinking” The new quest “Ol ‘Fishing Buddy” will lead us to Grizzleheim’s fishing spot and Haarek Silverscale in Northguard.
 

Haarek Silverscale gives us the next fishing quest, “New Fishing Buddy” The quest is to catch two fish in Grizzleheim.

The first one you will have to catch is the Todd Pole, a fairly common rank 1 Life fish, found in Northguard. To help locate this fish, I suggest you use the Reveal Fish spell. To catch it, use the Lesser Vitality Lure.

The second one will be the Bear Acuda. This rare rank 2 Fire fish is found in Mirkholm Keep. To catch this fish use the Lesser Flame Lure. As with all fish, a little extra fishing luck will go a long way.

When you finish that quest you will be awarded a spell, Slow Fish. This spell slows all fish in the fishing hole. I have found this is a very important spell to have. It makes Rare, Epic and all the fish slow down. Then, when they are near us we can catch them easily without repositioning as much.

Once you have reached fishing level 5, Haarek Silverscale will have these rank 2 spells available for 5000 gold

Minor Harmony Lure, Minor Repose Lure, Minor Flame Lure, Minor Frost Lure, Minor Vitality Lure, Minor Fable Lure, Minor Spark Lure.

To catch the fish in this article, we used the rank 1 spells from Lucky Hookline.

To level up in fishing you should make a list of the fish that are in your Angler’s Tome, and see what you are missing. Starting with rank 1 fish, you want to work your way up to rank 3.

All fish will show important information about them in their picture. The experience gained, lure required, where they are located and aquarium size will be found in your Anglers Tome.

Different fish give different experience amounts. The largest amount is received the first time you catch a particular fish, and it slowly decreases each time you catch the same fish from there.

In the same area of Grizzleheim, you will find Frode Silverscale. He is a Fish Master, also found in Northguard.

Haarek Silverscale and Frode Silverscale are close to each other and are quite easy to locate. I have marked their locations on this map

When we reach Level 6, Frode will have new spells for you that are very useful. They can restore the fish when they are gone from a pond, make the fish come to you, or even freeze them in place. These are quite important spells to have. 

Summon Fish- Resets all Fish in the Fishing Hole

Charm Fish- Attract all Fish in the Fishing Hole

Fish Lullaby- Immobilize all Fish in the Fishing Hole

Tips

Fishing takes patience, but it’s a great way to use your unused energy. 

You can keep your best fish and display them in aquariums, or sell your fish to Lucky Hookline for gold!

Many rare items can be found in fishing chests!

Don’t forget that the fish you see in front of you are not the same fish other Wizards see. Other players cannot catch or scare your fish away. However, if you catch a fish or scare it away, it will be replaced after 15 minutes.

If the pond does not have the right school of fish, scare them away by running in the water and come back later!

Also, remember that the first time you go to an area, they load the names of the fish. Of course, this is hard to see but always keep it in mind about rare and epic fish you are looking for. 

Next destination is Dragonspyre. Until then you can see more information about fishing, here.

Good luck and let us know how your fishing adventure in Grizzleheim goes!
