If you’ve been stuck trying to catch the Warty Oreo in Fisch, you’re not alone. This fish isn’t just about casting your line anywhere and anytime. It demands the right spot, bait, season, weather, and time. Getting these details right is the key to finally landing this tricky fish.
Here’s how to catch the Warty Oreo and other fish in Fisch’s underwater ruins
The Warty Oreo lives in the Crowned Ruins, which you can reach through the Collapsed Ruins in the Tidefall zone. To get there, jump into the Underwater Cave at coordinates (3138, 132, 910). Make sure you have a Tidebreaker+ Advanced Oxygen Tank because the dive is deep and you’ll need enough air.
Once inside Tidefall, head south to (3155, -1052, 1261) to find the Collapsed Ruins entrance. Follow the narrow path from there to enter the Crowned Ruins.
What fish can you catch in the Collapsed Ruins?
The Collapsed Ruins has 11 fish species, from common to exotic. Each fish needs specific bait, season, weather, and time to bite. Here’s a quick guide:
| Fish name | Bait | Season | Weather | Time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Copper Rockfish | Shrimp | Spring, Summer | Clear | Day |
| Roughhead Grenadier | Squid | Autumn, Winter | Clear | Night |
| Atlantic Halosaur | Shrimp | Summer | Clear | Day |

| Blackfin Barracuda | Minnow | Summer | Clear | Night |
| Black Scabbardfish | Squid | Autumn, Winter | Windy | Night |
| Pliosaur (Exotic) | Shark Head | : | : | : |
Note: The Pliosaur only appears during the Pliosaur Hunt event, which you can boost with a Sunstone Totem. If some fish like Roughhead Grenadier or Shortnose Chimaera don’t bite, try using cages or spearfishing instead of rods.
What about the Crowned Ruins?
This area has 13 fish, including rare and mythical ones like the Goldwraith. Here’s the full list with their bait, season, weather, and time:
| Fish name | Bait | Season | Weather | Time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gnomefish | Shrimp | Spring | Clear | Day |
| Oil Sardine | Flakes | Summer | Clear | Day |
| Roundnose Grenadier | Squid | Winter | Clear | Night |

| Black Snoek | Minnow | Autumn | Windy | Night |
| Blackmouth Catshark | : | Autumn, Summer | Clear | Night |

A dash (: ) means no bait is needed. For those fish, use rods, cages, or spearfishing. The Blackmouth Catshark prefers spearfishing.
Tip: If you get tired of rod fishing, buy Golden cages for 25,000C$ at the Crowned Ruins entrance. Deploying cages in the pool helped me catch the Tompot Blenny easily. The Goldwraith only shows up during the Goldwraith Hunt, a server event you can boost with a Sunstone Totem. Playing on low-pop or private servers also improves your chances.
