How to catch the Northern Pike

The Northern Pike only shows up in Cloudy, Drizzle or Rain. 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 Brawler fighting style: when it thrashes, land a hit to counter.

Roughly 1 in 210 fish that spawn in the pond is a Northern Pike. 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.
