Optional mini-boss

How to Beat Blue Shark in How to Fish

An optional fight on Desert. Here is what spawns it and how it goes.

Quick facts

Island: Desert

Spawned with: Standard Boss Lure

Handing in the trophy opens: The Grill

How to beat it

  • It charges in a spinning pattern, which is harder to sidestep than a straight rush.
  • Both guides we checked call a shotgun necessary rather than optional here.

Before you trigger it

  • Buy the spawn item first — without it the boss does not appear at all.
  • Stock healing. There is no shop once the fight starts.
  • Leave inventory space for the drop.
