While attempting to fix all tuning forks in DREADMOOR, Malcolm will meet the enigmatic Father Matthias, who will task him with catching two Bloodgill fish if he wants to finish his quest.
The fish’s location, however, won’t be marked on your map, making it a matter of knowing where to search. To help you save both fuel and time, here’s where to catch Bloodgill in DREADMOOR, as well as what you must do after giving them to Father Matthias.
Where to catch Bloodgill in DREADMOOR
Contrary to what you might imagine, you won’t be able to find Bloodgill spawns close to Father Matthias’ island in DREADMOOR. Instead, you can catch the fish by heading to the spot marked below, located south of The Slough’s Trading Post. The fish will become way more common after you reach the Big Hollow, though, and will be easy to spot close to the post’s new location.
Like all other predatory catches, the Bloodgill can be angled with both the Rainbow Fin and Flaming Belly baits. You can check out the items needed to craft both below, as well as get the Flaming Belly recipe by purchasing it from Gill and Bozur for 80 Coins at the trading post. To see how to unlock all other baits, take a look at our How to get all bait recipes in DREADMOOR guide.
- Rainbow Fin: 1x Fish Meat, 1x Metal Plate, and 1x Chromatic Scales
- Flaming Belly: 1x Fish Meat, 1x Jaws, 1x Metal Plate, and 1x Swamp Lily
After giving the fish to Father Matthias, you can then progress through the quest by heading to the top of the island and placing both the tuning fork prongs and the other required items at its ritual site. Make sure to also sleep before heading back to the trading post to avoid the dangers of nighttime.
