As a seasoned gamer with countless hours spent navigating the vast digital seas of various games, I can confidently say that the quest for the Tarpon fish in Dredge has been one of my most memorable experiences. The game’s lack of explicit guidance forces us to rely on our wits and exploration skills, which is a breath of fresh air in today’s hand-holding gaming landscape.


In the realm of the game called Dredge, players come across various missions needing them to locate certain sea creatures.

This article focuses on the Figure in Purple, who demands a sequence of three creatures as part of the quest, among them the elusive Tarpon. Unfortunately, no hint is given for finding this fish, making it somewhat challenging for players. This guide aims to help players locate the Tarpon fish and progress to the next stage of the quest.

As a seasoned gamer, I can tell you that once you’ve got the hang of it, the elusive Tarpon isn’t too hard to track down. The game doesn’t exactly hold your hand with Dredge, though; instead, it’s up to us to venture around and make use of the in-game tools at our disposal. In this particular quest, the encyclopedia proves to be a real lifesaver. By paying attention to the shape of the fish, the encyclopedia will point you towards the Tangled Strand as the place where you can find the Tarpon.

In various fishing areas within the Tangled Strand, the Tarpon doesn’t reside in a specific location. Instead, it can be found in multiple spots across the region. This distinctive fish is easily recognized by its unique feature – a long protrusion on its body that resembles a strand and becomes apparent when you identify a fishing spot’s outline.

To catch a Tarpon, you’ll need to use one of two options:

  • Shallow Rod
  • Trawling Net

In the winding marshlands, known as the Tangled Strand, the elusive Tarpon dwells. Contrary to popular belief, a Mangrove rod isn’t necessary for your fishing endeavors; any Shallow Rod will do just fine. Moreover, you can employ a simple Net to reel in a Tarpon. The exact duration of your wait is uncertain, but with persistence and a bit of exploring around the swamps, you’re sure to snag one eventually.

After landing a Tarpon, you will require three consecutive open slots in your storage for proper arrangement.
