How to catch the Electric Eel

The Electric Eel only shows up in Thunderstorm. The weather changes every few minutes, so keep an eye on the sky and be ready when it turns.

It's a level 3 catch (tricky) with the Slippery fighting style: near green it may flash purple and dodge back: wait for the next pass.

Roughly 1 in 350 fish that spawn in the pond is an Electric Eel. Worms make fish bite sooner, and rarer fish go for them, so bring some for the hard ones.

Every catch also rolls a random name with a prefix and a suffix, and a rarity tier from Common up to Super Duper Mega Rare, so no two catches are quite the same.
