How to catch Red-Striped Perch

Use the Fishing Rod. The exact approach depends on the creature’s category and, for shore-dwellers, its species type.

1. Cast the Fishing Rod into the right water: rivers and lakes for freshwater fish, coastal waters for saltwater fish.
2. Wait for the nibbles, then strike when the line bites down.
3. Higher-quality saltwater fish need a slow reel-in. Keep the line from snapping instead of holding the button down.

The Red-Striped Perch is sometimes called the "mutant perch," but apart from its color, no differences in anatomy, habits, or other biological traits have been found between the species and the common perch.

In other words, as long as you cook it right, it'll be just as delicious as your favorite perch.
