How to Find Tarpon in Dredge's Figure in Purple

As a seasoned adventurer who’s sailed through the treacherous waters of Dredge for countless hours, I can confidently say that the enigmatic Figure in Purple has been my most intriguing encounter yet. This elusive figure, hidden away on a secluded island, seems to have an affinity for the mysterious and elusive creatures of the deep sea.


In the realm of Dredge, gamers will face numerous missions that call for discovering certain marine creatures. One persistent set of fetch-quests is the enigmatic Hooded Figures, appearing five times in total – four in the main game and one in The Pale Reach. For this discussion, we’re focusing on the Figure in Purple who demands a sequence of three creatures, among them being the Tarpon. Unfortunately, no hints are given about locating the fish, making it somewhat challenging for some players. This guide aims to help players find the elusive Tarpon fish and progress further in the quest.

Once you’ve figured out where to search, spotting a Tarpon isn’t too challenging. Unfortunately, Dredge doesn’t provide much direction, so it’s up to you to explore and use the game’s tools. In such cases, the encyclopedia proves invaluable. By observing the fish’s distinctive shape, the encyclopedia will point out that Tarpon can be found in the Tangled Strand.

The Tarpon, a unique-looking fish, doesn’t reside in a single specific location within the Tangled Strand. Rather, it can be found in multiple fishing sites scattered throughout the region. When you find a fishing spot, the Tarpon’s distinctive feature – a long projection from its body resembling a strand – becomes evident in its silhouette.

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

  • Shallow Rod
  • Trawling Net

As a gamer exploring the Tangled Strand, I discovered that the elusive Tarpon can be found with a Shallow Rod instead of the Mangrove rod often assumed. A simple Net could also be utilized for trawling this prized catch. Catching one isn’t an immediate feat, but persistence pays off – keep driving around the swamps and you’ll eventually reel in a Tarpon.

When you manage to hook a Tarpon, make sure you have three consecutive, unoccupied spots ready in your storage area.

Since the Tarpon is attached to the Purple-robed Individual, it’s important to identify where this Figure in Purple can be found. To locate him, travel southward from the Tangled Strand towards the small island. You will discover him on the E9 tile within that region. This area holds one of the Relics needed for the man residing on Blackstone Island. It would be wise to perform this task when you receive it, as it allows you to complete multiple errands at once.
